    Caught fish and had a good time

    2 hour Trip (Mid AM) on April 2, 2026 • 2 adults

    We booked a trip with Will. There was a hiccup with the scheduling but we got it figured out quickly days prior. As we were getting to Will’s boat another fishing guide put him onto a spot that was hitting. Will took the advice and drove some distance to get us there. Once there we landed 9 fish in our short two hour trip with the drive to the spot. All trouts and one puffer. My teenage daughter had never fished before so this was ideal. We definitely enjoyed our time on Will’s boat. He is a true professional and would definitely use him again. Also a shoutout to his buddy that put on the fish.

    Awesome experince! Definitely recommend.

    Half Day Trip on June 5, 2026 • 3 adults • 1 child

    Can’t say I caught as many fish as my son, but what a great time. The captain was awesome, the boat was spotless, he was early, and communication was easy; the best part is that boy he put us on the fish!!! 5 hogfish for the day, unreal guidance, and luck. I won’t even try another charter in the area, especially with that awesome playlist. Thanks again for having us.

    Great trip with a great Captain.

    Half Day Trip on July 1, 2026 • 4 adults • 1 child

    Fishing was a little slow but figured it would be with the full moon. But our Captain still got us on fish and we will have plenty for a couple meals. The kids and wife enjoyed it so that's a win in my book. The captain was very good with keeping everyone hooked and fishing. Would definitely book again.

    What a great trip with Captain Will. He put us on fish right away. We caught our limit of Mangrove Snapper as well as some nice Gag Grouper and sheepshead. Finished the trip inshore with some trout. Great time with a great guy.
