We decided to book with Captain Robbie after all the great reviews. My husband took our boys ages 12 and 7 and they are still talking about the fun we had. Captain Robbie gave us great options for the trip to keep the kids entertained. We ended up doing a split trip with half fishing, half scalloping it was an absolute blast ! Captain Robbie kept us laughing and in the good spots. We will definitely book with him again when we are back in town. As a plus the scallops made a delicious dinner!

8 Hour-Full day- Inshore/Nearshore

Wow! Fish on!

VERIFIED

We lived in Tampa 25 years and have used several fishing guides over the years but I can tell you that Robert Denbo is one of the best guides I’ve ever used. No exaggeration. His mission is to put you on fish and with his vast knowledge of the area and techniques, you are sure to get your money’s worth. We had an Inshore Grand Slam today (Snook, Reds, Trout) which is driven by multiple conditions but his skill, knowledge and persistence was undoubtedly a major contributing factor in our success. There are many guides to choose from but if you want a friendly, knowledgeable and experienced guide, I highly recommend Robert Denbo. Thank you for a wonderful day on the water Robert—we will be back! Fish on!

The day fishing with Captain Rob was outstanding! We are experienced fisherman who wanted to catch fish and Captain Rob set us up for sucess. The boat and equipment was top notch and his experience on the water came thru with each fish we caught! He was accommodating to our party and fun to be with as well.

Captain Robbie is a very knowledgeable and professional! He grew up in the area and has been fishing the area his entire life. His boat and nice set up is ideal for near shore fishing and getting into shallows for redfish, trout and snook. We had a very productive two days and really enjoyed Robbie’s company. He made it all easy and seamless. We’re grateful for a wonderful fishing experience! Thank you Robbie!
