    Had a blast!!!

    4 Hour Trip — Inshore (AM) on March 24, 2026 • 4 adults • 2 children

    Went fishing with Captain Justin in the morning and had a great experience with the family. We had two kids along and he was extremely helpful with anything they needed. Not just a great captain but a great guy, he took the time to get to know us all and by the end of the morning it felt like we were fishing with a friend. Would recommend anyone that is looking for a fishing charter to book here we caught fish and had a great time.
