    Christmas 2020, 2021, and now 2025!

    3/4 Day Trip (AM) on December 26, 2024 • 4 adults • 2 children

    We have made this fishing trip a family December event now. The boys couldn’t wait to go fishing, especially since we now live in NC. It was a successful day with lots of meat to bring home, which we ate for dinner and lunch the next day. Looking forward to another December fishing trip in the future.

    Great time

    Half Day Trip (AM) on December 24, 2024 • 2 adults

    My son and I had a great experience. Richie did a great job with advice and techniques to catch the fish, and put us in the right areas. We caught a good amount of fish with enough keepers for at least one meal. I would book him again in a heartbeat.

    Annual Family Fishing Trip

    3/4 Day Trip (AM) on December 27, 2021 • 4 adults • 2 children

    This was our second time fishing with Captain Boggs with our two sons. Once again, it was not a disappointment. Our boys had such an amazing time and we caught many different species of fish. He is extremely patient and attentive to our boys and always had a new shrimp/minnow ready. Looking forward to many more fishing adventures with Captain Boggs!

    Family fishing trip

    3/4 Day Trip (AM) on December 29, 2020 • 4 adults • 2 children

    Our family came across this website and found Captain Boggs information. We read through all the amazing reviews and booked our trip. We couldn’t be more pleased with how it went. The captain was extremely helpful with all four of us and especially patient with our inquisitive 7 year old son. Caught all different species of fish! We definitely want to go back for another round in the near future.

    Great day of fishing

    Half Day Trip (AM) on April 3, 2026 • 2 adults • 1 child

    I booked the 4 hour morning trip for me and my 8 year old son. It was my son's first time fishing in the Gulf and the Captain was great at providing us pointers to help us catch plenty of fish. We were calling my son the snapper king by the end of the day. We had a great time and I'd recommend Capt Boggs to anyone trying to get out on the water.

    Good time

    Half Day Trip (AM) on April 11, 2025 • 2 adults

    Would recommend. Richie was awesome, boat was great. We dealt with tough conditions and finicky fish after days of wind churning up the water. Richie worked hard to put me on some fish, and give me a good day on the water. Hope to be back next year!

    Solid fishing charter

    Half Day Trip (AM) on April 15, 2024 • 4 adults

    A great day on the water with Captain Richie. Caught a lot of multi-species fish from Snuke/Sea Trout/Snapper/Bonnett Head Shark/Needle/lady fish & Jack Crevalle. Moved to various spots and fished with live bait. Also saw a great dolphin show on are charter! Totally recommend him for future charters.

Richie Boggs is an enthusiastic guide. As he likes to say, he was 'born on the water.' His family lived on a big reservoir and Richie grew up fishing as much as possible. He began guiding to share his passion for the outdoors. Richie has also taken part in various fishing tournaments.
