My family had a wonderful trip with Jeff and Have Faith Fishing Charter! Our morning started a lot slow with fish biting so Jeff took us to a few other spots and the fish were just not biting (no fault to the captain) and all the other boats we saw were saying the same thing. Captain Jeff said we have three options…I can’t remember the first two because when he said the third option was shark fishing, my 13 year old son was shouting YES YES YES! Jeff took us to a spot and within a few minutes both kids had hooked a shark! The kids caught five different species of shark and my sons was a 10 foot, 250 pound shark! He told the captain that was a bucket list item for him and that his dreams came true today! I think he’s still smiling ear to ear! Captain Jeff was amazing and really made sure we had a great day! We can’t wait to go fishing again!

I don’t often do reviews, but this trip was the best…The Captain was well versed in the shores and waters of Daytona Beach having a great deal of experience both commercially and professionally, allowing quick hookups and resetting of lines. He has quality baits and top notch equipment to bring in the big boys…This captain and I have a shared life style that made great conversation and tremendous patience with my lack of experience…A great family oriented man with deep compassion for his job, and genuine desire to please his customers…I highly recommend him and his boat which I will use in the future…

Captain Jeff was terrific. My son was hoping to catch "A" fish and Captain Jeff more than delivered. We caught a lot of fish and had plenty to take with us to eat, he fileted them up and we had a great meal. He recommended a place for us to take the fish we caught, and they cooked them up for us, blackened, grilled, and fried, can't beat that. A fantastic experience that will be a lifetime memory. The boat was perfect for the 3 of us, not like some of the big commercial charters with 25-30 people on board it was truly a custom personalized experience, thanks Jeff!! We'll be back next time we are in the Daytona area.
