    We went catching with Captain C today

    Half Day Trip – Light Tackle on October 30, 2026 • 2 adults

    Today we went on a half day with Captain C and Boba first mate. They show us great fishing technique explained the method ~dropped bait to 48 feet and 80 feet live bait and tackle. They were great teachers helping all along the way From the starting fish spot we caught a fish about every 15 minutes caught 15~16 fish ~four different species. We took our catch to the poop deck right next-door to the marina. It was amazing cooked perfectly~ grilled ~blackened~ fried with two sides excellent. we will be back.

    Best fishing trip and most affordable for a private charter-and coming to the Bahamas for 20+ years

    Half day trip light tackle on July 16, 2026 • 3 adults

    Captain Andre and his mate are the only two people you want taking you out on your private charter! He promised us he was going to do his best to get us to catch fish, and he did! Whenever the fish stopped, biting, we were off to the next spot. We even landed a shark that we set free. I think he said we caught over nine different species of fish however, some we had to throw back due to their size. We had so much fun, and we were the only three people on the boat- with him and his mate. I’ve been bringing my family to the Bahamas since the early 2000s, and we’ve been on many fishing trips. Most of them with people we didn’t know because we couldn’t afford a private charter. Several years, we couldn’t find people to go on a trip, so we didn’t fish. This trip was the most affordable, and the best we’ve been on. Make sure you call and schedule your trip ahead of uour viist; or as soon as you get to the Bahamas, cause I have a feeling this Captain is going to be booking up his slots very fast…. After we were done fishing, he took us back to the docks where they filleted each and every fish with such care to get us the best fillets. Even the chef back at our resort commented on how nice the fillets were! Captain, a sincere thank you for an outstanding trip! We can’t wait to come back to the Bahamas and head back out with you and your crew!

    Best Anniversary Gift!

    Half Day Trip – Trolling on August 1, 2026 • 4 adults • 2 children

    I booked this charter as a five year wedding gift for my husband and it more than delivered! Our crew were so incredibly personable and really went above and beyond to make my toddlers feel part of the experience! A highlight was catching a barracuda as the kids couldn’t believe how “scary” it looked! The team took great care to prepare our catch and directed us to a convenient (and incredible) spot to have it prepared for our lunch. One of the best experiences I’ve ever had and my husband was thrilled with his “gift”! Can’t recommend enough!!

    Rain or shine

    Half Day Trip – Light Tackle on July 6, 2026 • 2 adults

    Perfect weather starting our trip. The captain even waited on us to find a parking spot before we boarded. We started catching fish immediately. Strawberry grouper was our main catch, if you could get it in before the barracuda grabbed it. We lost 2 before we could get them in the boat. The first mate took care of all of the handling of the bait and the fish as well as filleting our catch so we could take it to the poop deck and have it prepared. Towards the end of our trip we got stuck in a thunderstorm. The captain diverted us between 2 fronts of weather so we only got soaked when we had to. Great trip and great crew with or without the rain. Despite the thunderstorm, everything leading up to that, the weather was perfect. Definitely recommend

    Excellent experience in true chill bahamas style

    Half day trip light tackle on December 18, 2025 • 2 adults • 1 child

    Excellent trip!!!! These guys we're great!!! Super relaxed, super fun, super easy! We stayed at Atlantis resort, they came to pick us up on the doc, and we felt comfortable from the start! My 10 year old son and I were looking for a laid back trip to catch some eating fish.. this was perfect! Captain Andrei and his energetic first mate, babba, made us feel comfortable front the start! They got us on fish super fast... and we didn't stop catching until we left. We actually caught so many we were throwing them back. All different species! Definitely would recommend !!!! They set us up at the local restaurant to eat out catch which made it even better! Absolutely nothing I would change or ask differently! Great job guys!!!

    Fish were jumping into the boat

    Half day trip light tackle on January 25, 2026 • 2 adults

    We had a great time fishing with Captain C! As soon as we would drop our lines in the water the fish were biting. We caught over 40 fish of which included trigger fish, strawberry grouper, parrot fish, big eyed John’s, sheep’s head, and yellow tail. Captain C and his buddies cleaned the fish for us and we were able to take it to a restaurant (The poop deck) at the marina where they cooked it for us. It was some of the best fish we have ever had. You will not be disappointed booking with Captain C!

    Culture, Good Vibes, and Fish

    Half Day Trip – Light Tackle on November 27, 2025 • 2 adults

    Captain Charles and mate Kimmy were very welcoming. Cap knew where to go and we were on fish at the first drop. Put me on a wide variety of species which was exactly what I asked for, ahead of the trip (to catch fish I can’t catch at home and haven’t caught before). Equipment, gear, and boat were all in good shape for the trip we made, Picked me up and dropped me off (on the sly) right at the dock directly outside my hotel. At first I had to get aligned with the crew who were trying to do everything for me—bait, unhook; rebait, even cast—I did come to fish, guys—but that was sorted out easily enough. We had a great time: very friendly, knows the grounds, and Cap is a professional when needed, and a funny guy when his guard was down. I was able to catch at least 5 fish I had never caught before. Mission accomplished and I recommend Cap Charles highlly.

    My best fishing charter ever

    Half Day Trip – Light Tackle on April 23, 2026 • 1 adult

    Captain c and his first mate picked us up at senor frogs, as agreed, and we went out through the channel. First mate gave a running narative aniut the houses, businesses, and the islands we were passing. Very entertaining. We got ti deep water, and i began cating smaller fish and some med size groupers. Then moving to rockier deep water, we started using the small fish as bait, on a heavier pole. Soon i hooked a 3 ft barracuda! Got it on board, started fishing again. Then we hooked a shark! Finally got it to the top, and it was a 7 ft long nurse shark! Great trip!

    Awesome experince!

    Half Day Trip – Light Tackle on April 1, 2026 • 4 adults • 2 children

    Great captain and mate! While we didn’t have the most ideal conditions (a bit windy, slightly rough seas), that didnt dampen the fun. First stop we were hooked up within minutes and it was non-stop reeling until we decided to move to calmer waters. Second stop was more of the same, fish after fish hooked up! Caught 8 different species with numerous keepers. Highly recommend for a great time, accommodating captain and most important, if you want to catch fish!
