5 Hour Trip (AM) on July 13, 2024
My kids and I have been deep-sea fishing for many years, and this was by far our best all-around trip! Captain Trace and deckhand Trey are so fun and knowledgeable! I have never felt such respect and friendliness from captain and crew and all my decades chartering fishing boats. They greeted us with warm smiles and shook each of our hands and introduced themselves. Once in the boat we got a quick safety overview, which is another first! Trace knew what was biting and where to go, Trey was on the ball, switching out lines, bait and lures depending on what was biting. He stayed on top of 5 lines in the water, all with a huge smile on his face and full of enthusiasm! We caught many different types of fish -so fun!! Had a great day out on the water - lots of great stories and laughter! Cherished memories made yesterday. I will definitely book with them again!

Best 5 hour trip we've had!
5 Hour Trip (AM) on June 10, 2024
We went out with Cpt. Clinton and Marshall and the trip could not have been better. Clinton got us on the fish and Marshall was spot on as a deckhand. We had a quick limit on huge red snapper then caught a barracuda and some nice sized shark. One of our party members got sea sick and Clinton was awesome about keeping the boat as stable as possible on the ride back. Thanks for the awesome fishing and memories!
