2 Hour Trip (1:00pm)
I booked this charter for my son’s first fishing trip. I wasn’t sure how he was going to like it, but it could not have been a more perfect day. The captain, Joe, did everything he could to make my son and I have a good time. We caught a lot of little fish for the kid and Daddy got hooked up on a shark! Joe was more than accommodating and an absolutely fantastic Captain. I cannot recommend this boat enough, especially if you’re looking for a nice, short trip to introduce your kids to fishing. 10/10 and I will most definitely book again when I come back this way

Booked a half day with captain Joey. He's a great guide. Super cool, friendly and very knowledgeable. He put us on fish right away. He made sure my family and I always had bait on our hooks and we went through a lot! We caught a lot of mangrove snappers. Kept 10 for grandma, threw a bunch more back and had one stolen by a big cuda. We also caught some Jacks and even a spiney lobster. So cool! Our only regret is that we didn't book a longer trip!!! Thanks captain Joey!! Can't wait to go again!

We had a great fishing trip and despite being complete beginners we caught lots of fish. Joey was very kind and patient with us and especially with my dad who doesn’t speak any English. My dad wanted to do a big fish dinner for the family and Joey showed us some great places to catch snapper and he had lots of live bait ready for us. We caught other fish too (see grouper pic) and just simply had a great time. We’ve could have stayed all day. We highly recommend Captain Joey!!

3/4 Day Trip
Captain Joey definitely knows how to find the fish! We could hardly keep lines in the water to keep up with it. Our targeted fish was tarpon , he told us it wasn’t the best time of year for them but we’d give it a go. We didn’t catch any though we could see them rolling all around us they just weren’t biting. But we caught probably 8 sharks, we lost count. Had an awesome time, would definitely recommend!
