Captain Gary was such a great guide. He areived early and was ready for us as soon as we got there. The boat and equipment was nice, they even had drinks for us. Even during a bad season we still managed to catch fish. Captain Gary knew what he was doing and assisted us in every step to catch fish. Captain Gary was hands on during the experience and invested in out experience. i would definately book again, this time for a longer trip.
My two sons and I went out with captain Bryce today and had a great trip. He was positive, energetic, and worked hard to keep us catching fish. We were having so much fun that we lost count of how many fish we caught, and managed to pull off an “Inshore Slam” in the process. Mother Nature wasn’t cooperating today but captain Bryce adapted and enabled us to have a fun and memorable trip. Will definitely book again next time.
Went out with Capt Gary. He was very knowledgeable about the area and the where to go to particular fish. He constantly kept the lines ready with bait. Definitely recommend!
Captain bryce was an amazing guide, super fown to earth and very knowledgeable. My girlfriend and i went on a half day trip in search of tarpon! We ended up pulling in a hammerhead shark which was absolutely incredible. Memories that will last a lifetime!
Captain Gary did a great job getting us on some fish. I wanted to catch dinner and maybe get the kids on something memorable. We got mangrove snapper, snook, and barracuda! Outstanding time on the water.
