Incredible Day on the Water with Captain Harold!

8 Hour Trip – Offshore on July 28, 2025 • 4 adults

Took my sons out on a charter with Captain Harold today, and it was an unforgettable experience. We were lucky enough to bag a beautiful 16-pound red snapper just before the season closed, along with a few other nice keepers. It was my sons’ first time on a fishing charter, and Harold was amazing with them—patient, knowledgeable, and made sure they felt comfortable and confident. He explained everything clearly and kept the trip fun and exciting from start to finish. This trip made some lasting memories for our family, and when I’m back in town, I’ll definitely be chartering with Harold again. Highly recommend!

Great Fishing Experience!

8 Hour Trip – Offshore on June 16, 2025 • 2 adults

Our trip with Capt. Harold was great from start to finish. The weather could not have been better. Little hot but what do you expect for June in Florida. Capt. Harold’s boat and gear were as advertised. We booked an 8 hr. trip and during the day there was never a dull moment. At times during the day the fish were not bitting but Capt. Harold worked very hard to make sure we found the fish. At the end of the day me and my son caught our limits and had a wonderful time. Without a doubt we will book again with Capt. Harold.

Captain Harold was awesome

4 Hour Trip –Inshore/Nearshore (PM) on August 22, 2025 • 4 adults

Normally in previous experience a four hour trip ends up including travel time. Not in this case we departed at 1, returned at 6:30, spent almost an hour catching bait fish ( he also had other bait) and spent a solid 4 hours fishing off Pensacola Beach. Weather even cooperated. Highly recommend

We had plenty of fun

6 Hour Trip – Nearshore/Offshore on July 9, 2025 • 2 adults

This was my first time fishing of shore and my friends second time. The captain was very knowledgeable, had all the equipment you could need and his ride was very nice, clean and well kept. We were able to keep 10 fish but caught more than that. Well worth the money spent to have a good time.

Captain Harold was extremely attentive and made sure our trip was a success! Our group had a mix of previous fishing experience, so it was great to rely on someone so knowledgeable of the area! We will definitely book again if we’re back in Pensacola!
