3/4 Day Trip on July 2, 2026 • 2 adultsMarc is an excellent professional fishing guide. I love Florida and I love the Gulf of America. I also loved catching a gigantic Goliath Grouper that Marc put me on. I want to come back another time and target TripleTail & Permit. Marc works hard and is easy to get along with. Beautiful part of Florida and I am looking forward to returning.

Todd Bergman5.0VerifiedHooked on a Perfect Day
Half Day Trip (AM) on April 3, 2026 • 3 adultsFantastic trip with Captain Marc! We caught snook, jacks, mangrove snapper, and even limited out on sea trout. He kept us on the fish by moving to the right spots, had great equipment, and did an excellent job cleaning and packing our catch. Easygoing, great conversation, and a true pro—would absolutely book again! Thanks.
Justin Taylor5.0VerifiedMarc is a great guide!
3/4 Day Trip on April 15, 2026 • 4 adultsWe had two inshore Grand Slams! Caught a shark, limited out on Sea Trout. Caught snook, red drum, cat fish and snapper. Great conversations and tons of story swapping. You can tell he really loves what he does! We will be back again!

Brandon Barbour5.0Verified10 out of 10
Half Day Trip (AM) on July 17, 2025 • 4 adultsCaptain Marc was an awesome guy, he took my family out for my 40th birthday. We caught snapper, tarpon and snook. My wife is not big into fishing and was a bit nervous but she had a great time, he took the time to stop the boat and show her manatees and dolphins which was the highlight of her trip. Thanks again if I ever visit Florida again I will definitely book with him again.
William Mccabe5.0VerifiedGreat day catching some fish with my oldest daughter!
Half Day Trip (AM) on April 28, 2025 • 2 adultsI had my daughter fly in to visit for a few days and she expressed an interest in fishing. Captain Marc couldn’t have been better! His boat was fabulous and he knew exactly where to go for us to catch a number of different types of fish including Jack, Snook, and Trout. Most importantly, my daughter had a great time. Looking forward to my next excursion with Captain Marc!

Such an awesome review, thank you so much Peter! I had a great time with you guys, looking forward to next time!! Thank you!!! -Marc
Captain Mark didn't waste anytime putting us on fish. Within the first hour we landed an 100lb Tarpon and had a larger one break off. It took over 45 mins to land that fish. He helped us get great pictures before he revived the fish and released it. We decided to do some inshore fishing which turned out to be a slow day. He couldn't have tried any harder to find some fish at many of his favorite spots. Great day and nice boat. Highly recommend a day out with him.
Thank you for the awesome review Steven! I had a great time with you guys on the boat! -Marc
