Greatest trip by far
3/4 Day Trip – Bottom/Trolling - 6:00 AM on July 18, 20264 adults2 children

We took our entire family on a 6-hour charter aboard Wahoo Dat with Captain Corey and deckhand Max, and they were outstanding from start to finish. Every aspect of the trip was top-notch. We caught plenty of red snapper, even while many other boats were struggling. Captain Corey knew exactly where to put us and got the job done. Deckhand Max was incredibly helpful, especially with our little kids, making sure they had a great time and got to catch fish too. This was an unforgettable trip, and there’s no question who we’ll be booking with next time. Highly recommend Captain Corey and Max if you’re looking for an amazing fishing charter!

Great day of fishing!
3/4 Day Trip – Bottom/Trolling - 6:00 AM on July 4, 20266 adults

Captain Corey put us on the fish and got our Snapper limits even with less than ideal water conditions following a storm and tons of boats out on a holiday weekend. We also did some trolling and caught a couple nice King Mackerels. Max was one of the best deck hands I’ve fished with. The passion these guys have for the sport and their true desire to put you on good fish is incredible. Can’t wait to fish with them again!

Amazing experience, caught our limit!
3/4 Day Trip – Bottom/Trolling on July 8, 20262 adults2 children

We had a great time and limited out on Red Snapper. We caught other species as well and had a great time. The captain and the deckhand were great, very knowledgeable and also great to talk to. They taught us how to best catch Snapper and were patient as we learned. My wofe had never been fishing before and she caught the most fish. Highly recommend this charter.

Great Boat, Captain, & Crew
5 Hour Trip – Bottom/Trolling (PM) on May 14, 20262 adults1 child

As all of us do, we work hard to come play. I reached outto the captain and got an instant response. We talked and he made his recommendations. We booked the five hour for the next afternoon. Great communication, captain set us to go earlier in the day due to the conditions. We hooked up soon as we stopped and continued till we all had our limits. The mate Jackson was very attentive to us and especially our 8yo, he kept her on tight lines reeling them in. Awesome trip, will book again.

5 Hour Trip – Bottom/Trolling (PM) on May 11, 20263 adults

These guys are top notch! Starting off, Captain reached out the night before and offered up early departure the next day due to some possible bad weather in the afternoon. Then he put us on fish immediately when we hit the fishing grounds. First mate was absolutely awesome. Both him and the captain were in constant communication, letting our family know how far to let the bait drop, then BAM, fish on. Finished with some hook and cook right at the dock. Fantastic day!!! Thanks guys
