    Amazing fishing trip!

    Shark & Goliath Grouper Trip on August 5, 2026 • 4 adults

    We had an amazing day with Seller Action Fishing Charters! Our captain, Nick, was outstanding and made the entire trip a great experience. Our family of four booked the Goliath grouper and shark trip, and it exceeded our expectations. We caught three Goliath groupers along with lots of other fish, so there was never a dull moment. Nick was knowledgeable, friendly, and worked hard to make sure everyone had a great time. He was fantastic with our family and made the trip both fun and memorable. If you're looking for an unforgettable fishing charter, I highly recommend Seller Action Fishing Charters. We'll definitely be back!

    Goliath Grouper!

    Shark & Goliath Grouper Trip on June 9, 2026 • 6 adults

    My sons and I did the Shark and Goliath Grouper trip with Captain Nick. We caught Red Grouper, Mangrove Snapper, Flounder, Permit, and Amberjack. But the crown jewel was a 300+ pound Goliath Grouper! It took both of my sons to reel it in! It's a memory they'll never forget. Thanks to Captain Nick and Stellar Action Fishing Charters for a great day on the gulf!

    Captain Nick is a good man and great with youth

    6 Hour Trip on July 22, 2026 • 5 adults • 2 children

    Very nice guy with a clean boat and great personality. Great with my 7 year old daughter and 14 year old nephew. We caught more than we could count and left with some keepers that we just cooked up 10 minutes ago. It was a great day and I thank Captain Nick for a job well done. 🇺🇸

    easy and flexible

    6 Hour Trip on November 23, 2025 • 3 adults • 1 child

    Captain Nick planned our charter exactly as we wanted and did everything he could to put us on the fish. We wanted an easy catch to start to set a positive experience for our first timer and he put us on a spot that landed fish as as soon as the bait hit the water. He then took us out deeper to target more sportier catch at the reefs, where we landed a nice cobia. highly recommended.

    It was a fun wxperience!

    3 Hour Trip - 2:00 PM on March 7, 2026 • 4 adults

    We went out about 2.5 miles. 3 locations in that same area. No casting, just dropped lines. Caught 2 different (small) fish. tried for grouper but no luck. Captain Nick actually fished for the grouper and my bf was on standby to real it up so technically he wouldnt have caught it. It was nice to be out on the water but was hoping for a little more excitement. My teenagers got bored but we did keep a few catches and Nick cut them up for us and our hotel bar cooked them!
