Danny KaneRepeat angler5.0VerifiedTRIPLETAIL - CAN’T SAY I’VE NEVER CAUGHT ANYMORE!
Half day inshore on September 2, 2026 • 1 adultHad a great day with Capt Marcus! My goal was to catch Tripletail, something I’ve never done before. He put us on the fish right away! He also taught a lifetime fisherman something new today. I’ll not be plopping breakfast on the table when I’m out fishing with him again!😂 You’ll have to ask him about it when you book with him. You will not regret booking with him. I had a blast and am looking forward to the next time! Thanks, Marcus! Great Day!
Jim Hooke5.0VerifiedTerrific Trip
Half day inshore on June 9, 2026 • 2 adults • 1 childCaptain Marcus gave us some great memories! i asked him to make this trip all about showing my 10 year old grandson how much fun fishing can be. Boy did he deliver! we learned about tge Bay, the History of the area…and we caught some fish!!! Very pleasant experience, I’ll definitely call him up for our next trip. Thanks Captain Marcus!!
Katrina Wilkerson5.0VerifiedFirst fishing charter trip!
Quick trip for the kids on June 5, 2026 • 3 adultsI booked this trip for my son as a graduation gift. My boys both enjoyed it and it was one of the highlights of our vacation. Marcus was very knowledgeable and funny. I would definitely book another trip with him, but would book a longer tour for more time! Thank you Marcus for a great memory with my boys!
Celeste Hyams5.0VerifiedGreat fishing day!
Half day inshore on September 26, 2026 • 4 adultsMarcus was great! We caught plenty of sheepshead and redfish, had lots of laughs, and he showed us some of the loacal history. One of our group had never fished before, and Marcus was great at helping her catch her first-ever fish! A great day, I'll book with him again.
Brandy Harbison5.0VerifiedBest trip!
Half day inshore on August 31, 2026 • 4 adultscaptain Marcus was awesome! He put us on fish at every stop we made. He was very personable and easygoing. We told him we wanted to do a fish fry and he tried his hardest to help us make that happen. He even showed us how to clean our catch. We will definitely book with him again!

Half day inshore on August 4, 2026 • 2 adultsCaptain Marcus was great , put us on a bunh of different fish. Caught the biggest black drum i have ever seen. He really took care of us. Will use him the next time im at St George Island.
Tyler Mcdonald5.0VerifiedCapt. Marcus is the man.
Half day inshore on April 15, 2026 • 2 adultsMy girlfriend and I set out with one goal; to catch redish. Not only did we exceed that goal, we had a fun time and down to earth experience. 12/10 stars, would do it again. Marcus is knowledgable of the area and can accommodate new fisherman and experienced anglers. Future patrons will proudly know their money is well spent
Chad Bruce5.0VerifiedGreat fishing trip!!
