Mitchell Hassman5.0VerifiedDon’t waste your time looking through boats, this is the one
3/4 Day Trip on December 28, 2025 • 2 adultsIt was perfect conditions so it was a perfect day before we left the dock. I’ve been fishing all around the world for 30+ years and I live in Miami so I know what to expect. The boat is VERY well kept. The captain and the mate are extremely knowledgeable and very experienced. Everything was perfect and we couldn’t be happier with the whole experience. I highly recommend and won’t waste my time searching any other boats next time we come back. We maxed out on black fin tuna and had an amazing day. Great job Capt!
Amanda CrouchRepeat angler5.0VerifiedPerfect Day!
3/4 Day Trip on December 27, 2025 • 6 adults • 2 childrenWe 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!
Duane HagerRepeat angler5.0VerifiedBest shark fishing ever with Capt. Chris
3 Hour Trip – Shark Fishing on April 4, 2022 • 5 adultsCapt. 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.
Steve Goodyear5.0Verified3/4 Day Trip w Captain Chris and 1st mate Jacob
3/4 Day Trip on January 4, 2022 • 3 adultsWe had a great day aboard the Spring Mix II. Capt. Chris and Jacob were great. We caught more a bunch of great fish (Mahi Mahi, King Mackerel and Yellow Jack. after we caught as much fish as we could enjoy- we went to try an catch sailfish- me managed to snag one to complete our trip. I highly recommend taking a charter with these folks when in Islamorada- This was our 1st visit and should we come back- we will be booking with them again. Great fun.

Full Day Trip on March 26, 2022 • 6 adultsGreat time with Capt. Chris and Jacob! We had great weather for our trip and caught some awesome fish that we were able to enjoy for dinner later that night. Captain Chris was great, as he worked with some in the group that weren’t as experienced, and Jacob brought a fun energy to us as we would get hooked. Definitely recommend them!
Eric Shelsy5.0VerifiedSuccessful 3/4 Day
Half Day Trip (AM) on April 13, 2021 • 2 adultsHad a great 3/4 day with my son. Captain Chris found Black Fin Tuna, and Dolphin Fish at 7:30AM we started reeling in fish we couldn’t have done it without 1st Mates Jacob and “Fish” We hit sporadically and in total we took home 11 cleaned, and filleted fish. The crew was friendly, hard working, professional, and informative. Captain Chris asked what we wanted to catch and brought us straight to them. I highly recommend heading out with Captain Chris and Crew

3/4 Day Trip on March 12, 2021 • 2 adultsWe had a great time with Chris and Jacob. The waters were very rough though. Chris took us out to a black fin tuna spot and we caught our limit in an hour and a half. Unfortunately we were in 5'-8' waves the whole time and got sick. Chris and Jacob put us on the fish and we left happy! The boat was clean and taken care of very well. Chris cleaned the fish on the dock and we took it to the closest resturant where they cooked the tuna 3 different ways for us.
Melissa WilkersonRepeat angler5.0VerifiedMemorable 3 Hr Shark Trip!
3 Hour Trip – Shark Fishing on February 10, 2022 • 6 adults • 1 childCapt Chris and his mate made the trip great. We got two big nurse sharks and a 9 fight Tiger Shark! Capt Chris was so attentive to my 8 year old who caught several snapper and grouper and he let him feel a sucker fish. Fun was had by everyone, would highly recommend them!
