Captain Robert "Robbie" on the vessel Odyssey is a very nice laid back captan that knows his boat, where to find fish and how to treat people. This was a family outin with my daughter, grandson, my son and his bride. We met at the dock, gassed up and headed out on time. The boat is a custom boat set up for charter, single diesel cummings a bit rough around the edges but like the mellinnum falcon she has it where it counts. Ssteady power, large ice boxes, high flow live well,great gear k(Star rods with Avet reels and some pen spin gearn) and most importantly very well stocked with up o date safty equipment including life jackets each with individual EPIRBs. We caught ample live bait with Capt. Throwing pancakes wit the net and wer off to the fishing grounds. We slow trolled and caught Kings a bonita then finished the day bottom fishing. Everyone on the boat caught fish and we had a great time. Captain Robbie went above and beyond, listening and delivering showng knowledge of the area kindness and determination. He was generous with the fishin tim and never seemd rushed to get back to port exactly as chartered. I'm sure he could of if it was asked but we enjoyed the trip and will be back. If you ant to fish the Cocoa beach area and aren't sure when to go for fishing contact him with your targeted species and he'll tell tou when to come or tell you what's biting now.
We had a great experience fishing with Robbie. He put us on the fish from the very first cast, and it was on, one after another. I highly recommend using him if you want excitement, a comfortable ride, and beautifully fileted fish. Thanks for an awesome trip!
Capt Rob was extremely knowledgeable and put us on fish at each stop. Had a great day in the water Weather was great fishing was solid sharks were plentiful but we did manage to get fish in the boat. Would recommend the Capt for the next charter. Will be calling him again sine we are local
Captain was great, don’t think I’ve ever had one care more about us having a good time. Thanks Robert!
Awesome. Thanks Ben!
Captain Robert made the day a wonderful success. catching fish so fast you cant keep bait on the hook is a great problem to have. on top of that tye captain worked hard to see we had a successful day. Great fun and friendship. Sturdy hardworking boat and crew.
