Family of 4......He was great with our 2 young teenagers. Caught snook, catfish, trout, a small black grouper, snapper and a couple jack(grunt). All were catch and release. lost a couple baby sharks. We kept moving to other areas if they were not biting where we were at. Knowledgeable and we learnt a lot about fishing on the west coast. Thank you Capt. Charlie
thank you very much!!!
Charlie was great! We caught shark, snook, catfish, grooper, trout, lady fish and three fin. He even cleaned our fish for us afterward! If you are looking for an action packed day I highly recommend!
thank you very much!!!
Brought my 11 yr old grandson to Sanibel and we had to go fishing!! Even though Mimi (thats me) caught the first fish in twenty seconds, we had a blast! Captain Charlie took us to several locations so we could catch (and wrestle with) different kinds of fish- jackfish, trout, a shark & more. it was my grandson’s best fishing day ever!
thank you very much!!!
Charlie was great with my son and his friend. we caught a variety of fish. looking forward to the next trip with him!!
thank you very much!!!
Another great trip with Captain Charlie! We’ve been coming back year after year because he tailors every trip to what you want, whether that’s catching dinner or battling sharks. Friendly, professional, and always a great time on the water. Highly recommend!
thank you very much!!!!!!
