Great time
4 hour Inshore Charter (Mid-day) on April 22, 2026 • 2 adults • 1 child
Very nice Captain- Spencer- who runs the boat during the week. Great communication. He was prompt, we left early, fished the whole time. He was great with my son (4 year old). Felt safe on the boat, would return.

BIG FISH
Half Day Inshore Charter - 3:30 PM on September 19, 2025 • 2 adults
Captain Spencer is the man!! I was on a mission for my first red drum and within ten minutes of line in the water, we were hooked up with a “citation” fish!!! Didn’t know what that meant until it got close. Another awesome thing which might or might not have been his plan all along was we never caught the same species which was so cool to catch so many different species and the fights they put up. I will be back for sure!!!!

Half Day Inshore Charter on March 25, 2026 • 4 adults
Captain Spencer did a great job for us. Yes, fishing was slow due to water temperature but we were told about this prior to going and offered to change dates. We went anyway and enjoyed a great day on the water thnks to Captain Spencer.

Beautiful Day, Big Fish
Half Day Inshore Charter (mid) on June 18, 2025 • 2 adults
My Wife and and I had an absolute ball today fishing for Red Drum. Most of the time you hear to small to keep, but in our case to big to keep. We enjoyed the fight of these big drum and a couple Blue fish along with great conversation and some great food recommendations. Highly recommend for great fishing, great convo and just an amazing experience! 5 stars!
