4hr nearshore / offshore trip on February 13, 2026 • 4 adults
Tiffany Bruender•Minnesota, USMember since 20245.0VerifiedLet’s do some real fishing!
4hr nearshore / offshore trip on March 6, 2024 • 2 adultsHands down! The crew you need to book with! Worth every penny and minute. Great atmosphere, good music, cute little dog! You could feel the pride he puts into his boat and keeping his clients safe. Plus he helped me achieve catching a shark as big as me! Gave us great restaurants options on where to get our fresh catches cooked up, even the best ways to have it prepared. Great knowledge about the area around here, and is very friendly to talk too! His co crew man, Chris was just as great as the Captain Joe. They did not make me like a tourist one bit. I will definitely be booking again, and it will be the 8 hours one, not the 4 hours. 4 hour was the right amount of time for new people like us fishing in the ocean. But I’m coming back prepared and ready to take on the whole day fishing with the men next time! 🌊🎣 Sorry, Chris for the google blast of your face, but it’s the best picture of the fish! 🐠
Robert DavisRepeat angler•Delaware, US•Member since 20203 trips5.0VerifiedEpic day
11hr longrange Full Send Adventure on March 22, 2025 • 4 adultsCaptain Joe and John his 1st mate were a team I’d put up with the great ones… worked their butts off to make sure everyone was comfortable but also making sure everyone worked those reels. Crazy 3 Goliath grouper day doubled up at one point. And then after some snapper chased down for monster Reef Donkeys. 11 hrs of pure sport would recommend 15/10 times…

6 Hour offshore deepsea fish trip . on March 7, 2024 • 4 adultsCaptain and first mate put us on some great fish and were able to keep our lines tight all day. We caught amberjacks, Goliath grouper and blackfin tuna, all of which were a first for us. I would definitely go again and recommend to anyone interested in offshore fishing

We flew down for one day to fish. The captain we had booked bailed on us for “bad weather”. Captain Joseph and his first mate John, agreed to take us and saved our weekend. The weather was beautiful and the fish plentiful! Highly recommend this crew!! Went far and beyond to make sure we all had a great time and to put us on the fish! We will be back.
What a great fishing experience. Both Joe and John were amazing, knowledgeable, helpful, and personable! Thanks for a great day on the water!

St. Petersburg, Florida, United States
Captain Joseph's father was a founding member and officer of B.A.S.S., so the captain grew up fishing. He's spent decades working as a commercial fisherman, starting as a deckhand and eventually working his way up to a captain of commercial Grouper bandit boats, Stone Crab boats, and net boats.
