A Trip to Remember!
4 Hour Trip — Multispecies on June 12, 20256 adults

Captain Christian was amazing! His knowledge on the water was quite evident. After stopping a few minutes to catch bait, he put our group of 6 on a school of Amberjack and we had a blast! Within an hour, every person in our party had experienced a fun fight landing fish and comparing who had the biggest catch. We moved onto another hot bed of activity, hooking even larger fish. The highlight of the day was fighting a 6ft shark that attacked our catch as we had it just away from the boat! We fought it for about 5 minutes before it cut the line, but it was an incredible experience we'll remember for years! Thanks so much for the wonderful trip!

6 hour trip- great time
6 Hour Trip — Your Choice! on October 13, 20222 adults

This was a great trip. Captain Jordan knew where to put us on fish and he enjoys fishing this area which made it an overall awesome experience. Once we hit one limit he let us bounce around to try and catch some stuff on our bucket list. I thought that was the added type of touch we got with this trip that makes it standout. We had 1 novice fisherman in our group and he ended up having the best day. Captain Jordan was helping him out with some of the finer points and the smile he had as we were pulling out fish was worth the whole thing. 10/10 would recommend.

1/2 Day Shark Trip with Captain Chris
5 Hour Trip — Shark on June 22, 20222 adults

We had a perfect day for fishing. Captain Chris was very knowledgeable and an experienced angler. The day started off a bit slow since we had trouble catching bait, but luckily Captain Chris and Captain Jordan were able to find some shark bait for us. We were fortunate enough to hook into a monster Lemon Shark. It took us 3 hrs 13 minutes to real in the biggest shark we have ever seen or caught. Captain Chris guesstimated it to be around 10’ long and 350 lbs or more. We were able to get it up to the boat even though it snapped the pole and eventually the line. It was a great trip overall and a fantastic graduation gift for my son and Father’s Day gift for my father-in-law. Thank you Captain Chris and Captain Jordan for the amazing memories and a great story!

I have been fishing my entire life and been working as a captain for the previous 12 years. I love fishing more than anything, and I'm not planning on doing anything else professionally. Being on the water is something I like the most about the job. You can only be relaxed when you are out on the water.
