Decided the day before to take the wife and parents out for a morning trip. Capt John called and wanted to know what we were looking to fish for. I had been wanting to go for Drum, and John advised that the conditions probably weren’t going to be favorable for a good Drum bite, so we decided on doing some trolling. We got some rods in the water and weaved around spots where the bite was good. He and his son the mate were very attentive and wanted to make sure we had a good experience. We ended the trip with several decent sized Spanish Mackerel in the well and left happy. Pretty chill trip and pulled out some fish as well
Dylan, thank you for a great review. I had a blast with you guys. Can’t wait to take you again. Maybe next time we can get on those Drum. 
we took our two foster sons and our 4 year old is on the spectrum and captain and his son were SO GREAT WITH HIM! our son had a bit of a tantrum at one point but they were so patient and engaged with him! It was such a great experience and they loved it! Really great for families especially if you have any neurodivergent kiddos, they were great! They are still talking about “Captain and Mr. Brad”! Caught some fish and saw some beautiful scenary!
kirsten thank you for an awesome review. I had an amazing time with you and your family. 
capt john and his daughter (capt Kayla) were excellent, easy, and very experienced. we had an amazing time and everything was relaxed, organized, and they were both very knowledgeable. We talked alot and had alot of fun. Once capt. john set the rods up we were on fish in no more than 5 minutes, and we stayed on for pretty much the whole time. Absolutely recommend and cant wait to book again!
sean thank you so much for your nice review. Can’t wait to go with you guys again.
We had a great time and Captain John was very patient with our kids and answered all their questions. We caught a couple fish so it was a slow day but toward the end of our time he went above and beyond and took us to see dolphins making their way through the area. The kids had a great time and so did we, it was the perfect combination of fun and relaxation!
thank you so much for your great review Megan. You have a beautiful family hopefully I’ll get to take you guys again 
We had a blast going out with Captain John. We took our two kids (6&3) on the two hour kids trip. Man were we put on the fish. In just two hours we caught probably 25-35 fish. Captain was engaging and very good with the kids. would def say if you have small kids this is the charter to take.
Chris thank you for the awesome review cant wait to go with you guys again
