We booked our trip last minute with Capt. Bryan and Jay. It didn’t seem to phase them much at all. They were professional, kind to all of us, and ready to roll. Capt. Bryan kept on fish constantly. We were amazed at how many fish we caught so quickly! My boys had wanted to fish some deep water, and we were able to do that. We had never done that before, and it was a great experience. We caught so many fish, we were worn out by days end. These guys checked all the boxes for us. I will definitely recommend them in the future! I would definitely book this trip again, it was well worth it! Great job Capt. Bryan and Jay! Thanks so much, for all the effort that was put in to making our trip one to remember.

These guys were amazing! Family friendly for the three of us (dad, mom and 14 yr old son). They put us on fish immediately and diligently worked at helping all of us, especially the 14 yr old catch all that he wanted to. Knew the perfect spots, had fun and friendly conversations with us and worked very hard to make it a great day for us. We went home with lots of good eating and even better memories. The boat is amazing and an easy ride and great set up to catch all that you can. Thanks Captain B and Jay!!

We had an awesome time. Captain Bryan was amazing with children. We had 3 10-yr olds on our trip. The bite was tough today, and he warned us of that. We still had a blast. I will call Captain Bryan every time we come here. Awesome guy. Great trip.

We had a good time. He got us on the fish early and continued to adjust as needed to keep the catches coming. Great experience, would definitely book again.

Communication from Captain Bryan was great starting a few days before our trip. He made sure we understood there was a chance of weather and rough water and gave us options, even on the morning of our trip, he explained what we could expect. his concern was that we had a good experience! And we did! He had us on the fish all day, and he and his mate stayed on top of our baits and kept us catching is places he has fished throughout his lifetime. I would not hesitate to book again.

Captain Bryan had the opportunity as a young teenager to begin fishing offshore in the Gulf of Mexico and has been passionate about the sport ever since. He feels he's been blessed with the opportunity to experience saltwater fishing in places like the Northern Gulf, Florida Keys, as well as the Carolina coast. He absolutely enjoys sharing his passion with others, particularly someone who has never had the opportunity to reel in a big fish. It brings him joy to help someone create that lasting memory.
