    the greatest charter to book!!

    1/2 Day Trip–Inshore/Nearshore (AM) on May 3, 2026 • 6 adults

    i cant speak highly enough about the character of tommy. he was very knowledgeable about the species we were targeting and was very willing to share that knowledge with us and happily allowed us to pick his brain. i can honestly say even if we didnt catch a single fish (we caught the perfect amount) we wouldve still had an amazing time. the trip was full of laughs and memories that was all made possible thanks to tommy. 100% would recommend him to anyone and we will be booking with him in the future!!

    Memories forever!

    1/2 Day Trip–Inshore/Nearshore (PM) on September 23, 2024 • 2 adults

    My wife and I went on an afternoon trip and had one of the best days ever!! 5 MINS on the water and I was hooked up! We caught 7 or 8 different species of fish, and what we kept was delicious 😋! Capt. Tommy / Capt Tim knew exactly where to go and how to change us up to keep the fish biting all day! Couldn't of asked for a better trip! I very highly recommend Buck Nasty Fishing Charters! I will definitely be a repeat client! Thanks again!

    This is the boat you’re looking for!

    1/2 Day Trip–Inshore/Nearshore (AM) on April 24, 2025 • 3 adults

    We had a good time out with Tommy who really worked to put us on the fish! On a slow bite day he did everything possible to make sure we were well taken care of and hooking up. He was great to plan with and we’ll certainly use him again!

    10/10 experience

    1/2 Day Trip–Inshore/Nearshore (AM) on September 2, 2024 • 4 adults

    Captain Tommy took my father, brother, and I out on an offshore trip. We have never been fishing on the ocean before and he made the experience super fun and smooth. We caught plenty of fish, exceeding our expectations. On our way back in he noticed some fish jumping and went out of his way to get us on some albacore, unexpected and a great experience! Would highly recommend you book this charter!

    The fish weren’t biting much, but we had a fun trip. My son had a great time and won’t stop talking about when we can go back and try again. Captain Tommy was a joy to be around and very patient.
