Derrick BrooksRepeat angler5.0Verified1st time in Tampa
Half Day Trip on March 30, 2021 • 2 adultsTJ did an amazing job! We were very comfortable with him and enjoyed our day on the water. He gave great instructions and guided us on what to do and expect when fishing inland. He hit his spots and we plucked a couple out while listening to good music and closed the day out how he suggested by having them cooked at the local restaurant! Thanks again for a wonderful experience...

Half Day Trip on June 12, 2021 • 4 adults • 2 childrenCaptain TJ was great with our 10 and 8 year old boys. We were very happy with his knowledge, expertise and attitude. We got to catch a variety of fish in different locations. We even had an up close encounter with a manatee and got to see a dolphin as well. As first timers to Tampa we were very happy we chose to go on this trip!
