Best Captain I’ve Had
Full day inshore on March 7, 20263 adults

Funnest trip I’ve had so far. He put us on plenty of fish, and was friendly and hilarious. It makes a difference when you feel comfortable, felt like an old freind. We had to cut our trip short due to one of my people getting sick, and he was kind enough to knock some off the price. i will definitely be chartering with Captain Marcus again. We caught sheephead, whiting, trout, and croaker on our trip.

20th anniversary fishing trip
Full day inshore on September 4, 20252 adults

So my wife and i are on our 20th anniversary and decided to do an inshore fishing trip. We came across Capt Marcus online and decided to give it a try. Let me just tell you it could not have been a better trip. We had a great trip and caught fish till we were give out. Capt Marcus was a great Captain and we talked like we had known each other our whole life. Honestly it was just an all around perfect trip and I am so glad we decided to use Capt marcus for our trip. We will definatly call him again when we come back down this way for our next trip.

Capt. Marcus is the man.
Half day inshore on April 15, 20262 adults

My 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
