6 Hour Shark Fishing
3/4 Day Trip – Shark Fishing on November 20, 20251 adult2 children

What an amazing trip! From start to finish the captain was super nice and very intelligent. it was myself and my two sons (10 and 12). The boys hit him with so many questions and at no time did he seem annoyed or not give them a genuine answer. He took us to a great spot where we caught around 13 sharks 3 different species. I was a pain and asked to switch the charter from morning to afternoon to see the sunset and he didnt even bat an eye and said yes. He made sure to take photos of us with the sunset in the back. Easy to meet up with and the boat was very nice and clean. All around amazing guy. I would 100% recommend booking with him.

Reported catch:
Blacktip Shark
Bonnethead Shark

Fish and Fun for all!
Half Day Trip – Inshore on September 30, 20255 adults

Captain Scott asked us to move our day due to the weather forecast. It was well worth the wait. We caught 12 different species of fish, including a redfish triple header! All five of us in our group caught at least 5 or 6 fish. Captain Scott is laid back and knowledgeable, and when the bite didn't happen quickly, he made a slight adjustment and BOOM! We caught trout, snook, redfish, spanish mackerel, and even a small barracuda, among others. We caught a few keepers and enjoyed a nice fish dinner that evening! It was a great trip. Wouldn't hesitate to go with Scott again if we are ever in the area!!

Reported catch:
Snook

Great trip!!
Half Day Trip – Inshore on January 22, 20262 adults

Scott was a fantastic guide. He put us on fish every location he took us to. He was a wealth of knowledge on the sport of fishing and its variations of the seasons. His boat was spotless and the rods and set up were great. We spent very little time getting out to our spots and on the fish. I would highly recommend him as your guide. He will be my go to charter guide from here on out.
