If you are looking for a competent, passionate, friendly guide to put you on the fish specie of your choice, Captain Hastings is the right choice.  The boat is set to handle offshore, the inlet and anything along the river.  Trevor has the knowledge and skills to find the fish, bring you home a meal and some great stories.  I look forward to my return to Sebastian area and a few more times on the water with him.

With the low temperatures and lower water temps we were unsure going into the trip if we were going to get on any fish as we had struggled all week on shore. In the morning, Captain Trev got us on some nice Sheepshead and Black Drum as we had told him we wanted some fish in the cooler. In the early afternoon we went out to the inlet and he hooked us up with two big bull reds and a monster snook. In the afternoon we went back to the river and we relaxed and caught some mangrove snapper as well. Captain Trev is a great guide and awesome dude as well!

Tough day of fishing due to high winds (gusts over 20mph). We landed a dozen or so of different varieties before calling it an early day. The captain knows his spots, knows how to read the water, and employs techniques specific to the spot being fished. He is very thorough and committed to his customers trip.

I really can’t say enough good things about our trip but here’s the highlights. Capt Trevor is passionate about fishing but definitely more worried about keeping everyone safe and happy on the boat. I booked my trip with only 2 weeks of recovery into my neck surgery and he was able to get us by the jetty so smoothly.

The night was slow for everybody it looked like but he never gave up. He even stayed an extra hour to make sure we had a solid chance and it paid off. My brother hooked into a huge tarpon that was easily over 120+lbs. It had his reel singing so bad it should have been smoking. I told him I’d rather not chase it because of my neck so unfortunately it spooled my brother but we still had a hell of a time.

10/5 will come back

I have fished on boats 1,000 times in my life and can say that the effort from Captain Trevor and the enjoyment of the experience were up there with all but a few handful of days I’ve had on the seas!
