Perfect Day!

3/4 Day Trip on December 27, 2025 • 4 adults • 2 children

We had the best day on the Spring Mix II with Captain Chris and mate Ben. We caught our limit of tuna, huge mutton snappers and some yellow tails + a shark. The boat was perfect for our two families and Captain and Mate were so helpful to our boys - on their first off shore charter. Definitely recommend and we’ll certainly be back!

Family fishing trip on the Spring Mix II

3/4 Day Trip on April 18, 2022 • 4 adults • 1 child

First time out for our boys. They had a blast!!!! Captain Chris knew exactly where to take us for some great fishing. Jeremy was the mate on our trip. I can’t say enough about Jeremy. He was great with the kids and we have multiple ages. Very patient and you could see how much he enjoyed teaching them and helping them. We had a great experience and a great catch. I would definitely recommend anyone looking for an amazing experience with great memories to book with them. Very welcoming, knowledgeable and they will make sure you have a fantastic, memorable trip

Best shark fishing ever with Capt. Chris

3 Hour Trip – Shark Fishing on April 4, 2022 • 5 adults

Capt. Chris and his first mate Jacob helped us catch many, many shark. From a baby pinhead to a sharks over 250lbs. it was amazing. While waiting for the sharks to arrive, they baited another pole with shrimp, which kept our kids busy reeling in snappers and even a puffer fish which they thought was so cool. We have been on charters before and I can tell you, this is a great boat and these guys will put you on fish. If you have a family with kids, they really do a nice job guiding the kids on how to reel in too.
