Great son and father experience.
Half Day Trip - Offshore (AM) on April 4, 20251 adult1 child
My son and I were looking for a good fishing adventure. We hire Captain Mark services. Initially we have booked for a 1/2 day am, but unfortunately weather was not good, we followed Captain Mark suggestion and rescheduled for the next day a 3/4 day pm. We appreciate the advise of the Captain, otherwise the experience wouldn’t been as fun and pleasant as it was. My son (11) is very into fishing, he had a lot of questions and Captain Mark was great addressing all of them. I truly recommend hiring Barracudaville/Captain Mark services. We were able to catch a vast variety of fishes, including some large king mackerel.

Captain Mark Delivers!
Half Day Trip - Offshore (AM) on March 28, 20254 adults
Our trip went perfectly and we would absolutely recommend Captain Mark to anyone considering a fishing trip in the Tampa/St Pete area. He was knowledgeable, organized, and safe. While we had hoped to make it out for some offshore fishing, Captain Mark explained the day’s weather forecast and projected conditions and he suggested we stay in the bay for some local fishing. That was absolutely the right call as the wind picked up and the swells offshore would’ve been too much. We had a blast fishing in the bay and everyone on our trip caught multiple fish. If we’re in the region again we’re definitely coming back to see Captain Mark!

Captain Mark at Barracudaville Fishing Charters was outstanding—professional, patient, and genuinely passionate about putting us on fish. He knew exactly where to go, kept the lines tight, and made the whole trip fun and stress-free. Great boat, great energy, great results. If you’re on the fence, book him—you won’t regret it!
