We had an incredible time fishing with Captain Travis! His enthusiasm for what he does is contagious, and his knowledge of the local waters made the trip both exciting and educational. He was incredibly friendly, patient and made everyone on the boat feel welcome. We caught an amazing variety of fish, including a red drum, black drum, bull shark, stingray, flounder, spotted seatrout, and even a blue crab! Every catch made the day more exciting, and Captain Travis was there to help every step of the way. We enjoyed the trip so much that he was kind enough to accommodate us and take us back out again the very next day! That level of flexibility and customer service really stood out. If you’re looking for a fun, memorable fishing experience with a captain who truly loves what he does, I can’t recommend Captain Travis enough. We’ll definitely be back!
My husband has a bucket list of fish he’d like to catch and today he was able to mark one off of the list. A very large Bull Red about 40 inches. Captain Travis was very knowledgeable about the areas we were fishing in, friendly and courteous to others on the water, accomodating towards us, and a pleasure to be out with on the water. We caught a variety and managed to achieve the Inshore Grand Slam: Red Drum, Spotted Sea Trout, and Flounder. We would most definitely go out with him again!
Captain Travis was really nice, extremely knowledgeable, and very patient. We caught several different species on the trip, including a red fish in the first 5 minutes, which was a keeper. Several fish had to be thrown back due to size - flounder, trout, lady fish, jacks. We finished the day with a 30” bull red.
I highly recommend you book with Travis! He will from now on be our “go-to” anytime we want to go fishing or out on a boat. After I booked, I had several questions and Travis was helpful, responsive and friendly while addressing them. Day of - I could tell he had a lot of knowledge about the area, and I very much appreciated that he was willing to cater the day to what we need/want and ensure we had the best experience possible. Whether you are a beginner, or an avid fisher - he will adjust to you. I genuinely felt that he went above and beyond to ensure we had a great time. Not to mention, we caught a bunch of fish!
Captain Travis was awesome. He put our party of 4 on some bull reds, and we even were able to catch our limit to bring home! I would recommend Captain Travis to anyone looking for some redfish action!
