What could have been a mediocre day was anything but that! Just before our scheduled arrival, Capt Nick let us know the morning trip hadn’t yielded much and the water conditions were less than perfect - he left it up to us whether we’d like to do the trip or not. We decided to roll the dice and go for it - and we’re happy we did! Capt Nick and Brian were both personable and knowledgable - answering all the questions we asked and sharing some great stories along the way - we even got to share a great dolphin story we heard. Onto the fishing! With no guarantees and the warning that morning run wasn’t very fruitful, we prepared ourselves to not catch much. But we sat out there enjoying the water and sharing some laughs until, suddenly, we got a bite! There were three of us on the trip and we each had the opportunity to reel in a shark. I’m no expert at all - but they were saying each one was probably around 150 - 200 pounds! We had an absolutely wonderful day on the water and each of us now has a new and exciting fishing story to tell our friends - with pictures to prove it! Highly recommend - 5 stars - would do this again!
We had a great time taking the 3 of you out. We appreciate the business. We hope to see you again. Capt Nick
We had the absolute best time with Captain Nick and First Mate Joey on their vessel the Tara Anne Sportfishing! From the moment we got on the boat, Captain Nick and Joey made us feel completely at ease—they were so kind, knowledgeable, and calming, especially for those of us who were a little nervous since it was our first time. Both were patient, explained everything clearly, and made the trip fun and relaxed from start to finish. Our group included two teenagers and two adults, and we all had an absolute blast. We caught bluefish and Spanish mackerel, and Captain Nick and Joey made sure we understood how to handle everything safely. They also pointed out things about the area and the fish, making it a great learning experience too. The communication was excellent, the atmosphere was light and fun, and we always felt safe and taken care of. To top it all off, the fish we caught tasted amazing once we cooked them up. The whole experience exceeded our expectations—it was better than we could have imagined and definitely a memory we’ll cherish. Highly recommend Tara Anne Sportfishing. The experience is perfect for both first-timers and seasoned anglers. We can’t wait to go again!
Me and Joey had a great time taking the 4 of you this morning. We are glad to hear you had a great time. Thank you for the review and the business. We hope to see you again. Capt. Nick
Te captain, first mate, and boat were top notch - right up there with the best charters we’ve done. This was our first black drum trip and we’ll definitely do it again!
Steve I’m glad to hear you had a great time. As always we appreciate your business and hope to see all of you again in the future. Capt. Nick
Thanks to captain Nick and first mate brian for the amazing trip. They are very knowledgeable and make fishing a breeze. They got us on fish fast and we had a blast catching them. They kept the rods baited and ready to go. I highly recommend this boat and crew. Very clean & professional. We will be back again!
Brian and I had a great time taking all of you today. Glad to hear you had a great time. Looking forward to taking all of you again. Capt. Nick
