Great time in the water
Family Trip on May 18, 20264 adults

I booked this charter as a gift for my fiance and his adult sons. From the first communication with Captain Anthony, it was a fantastic experience. My fiance and his sons thoroughly enjoyed their time on the water. Captain Anthony and his first mate are very skilled, knowledgeable and accomodating. They saw and caught a large variety of fish and very much enjoyed the boat. They truly enjoyed their experience. We highly recommend booking a charter with this company!

Perfect day with lots if bonitos caught!
Offshore - 3/4 Day on April 16, 20265 adults

Captain Anthony and Sam were great at finding all the right spots, so my fiancé and I were able to catch bonitos and sea bass. They were awesome at answering our questions and throwing out cool facts about what we were catching. When we got back to the pier they cleaned and cut the fish for us so we could get to enjoying everything we caught! I highly recommend using them for your next deep sea fishing trip!

Reported catch:
Black Seabass
