Half Day Trip - Inshore (Midday) on December 13, 2025 • 3 adultsI took a blind 23 year old fishing and requested a hard fighting fish so that he could hear the drag “screaming “. Our first fishing spot was for small sharks (bonnet head). That was a perfect way to start the day. Caught two nice sized sharks and the young man’s day was made in the first half hour!

Melissa Cunningham5.0VerifiedGreat trip
The 3 Hour Tour on July 22, 2025 • 5 adults • 3 childrenWe took our 3 kids (ranging 3, 9, and 12) on a 3 hr inshore fishing trip. Anthony and Jay were great. Boat was perfect. We caught a red drum, a cat fish, and a shark. My kids hoped to catch more fish but that’s the chance you take on the water. They tried a few different spots and the fish weren’t biting. We still had a great time out on the water. It was a beautiful day. My kids enjoyed cooking up and eating the red drum fish!
Lee Evans5.0VerifiedGreat Experience, Go with Pocket Change!!!
Half Day Trip - Inshore (AM) on July 25, 2025 • 5 adults • 1 childCaptain worked hard to put us on fish and was very easy to work with. For the new fisherman he baited hooks and took fish off lines. For experienced fisherman, he let them do it if they wanted. Super friendly and everyone had fun. Fished shore and in the bay. End of the day he cleaned, filet, and prepped the fish we caught and tasted great.

We had an amazing time on this fishing charter! From the moment we got on the boat, everything was smooth, professional, and well-organized. The crew was friendly, knowledgeable, and made sure everyone felt comfortable and ready to fish. Best of all—we actually caught fish! Not just one or two, but plenty to make the trip exciting and totally worth it. The captain clearly knew all the right spots, and you could tell they really care about making sure guests have a great experience. Whether you’re new to fishing or have done it before, this charter is a great choice. We made awesome memories and will definitely be booking again. Highly recommend!

Captain Anthony was amazing! the weather didnt wanna participate and left us in a heavy fog. He was still able to keep the group entertained and catching fish throughout the trip would highly recommend him and his crew looking forward to our next charter!
