Sharks

5 Hour – Inshore / Nearshore (PM) on May 14, 2025 • 6 adults

It was fun but was a little disappointed that we did not catch any sharks as that was the targeted species.

Half Day with Captain Matt

4 Hour – Inshore / Nearshore (AM) on June 6, 2023 • 4 adults

We took a half day out to catch some fish and it could not have gone better. The boat was great, our captain (Matt) kept us safe and comfortable (and dry) during the trip and worked tirelessly to put us on fish. Super friendly, communicative folks. Very flexible and willing to make your trip great. Did an awesome job cleaning our fish and leaving us with a great dinner! Would go again in a heartbeat!

This trip was awesome! We caught so many fish that I would love to come back! The captain was awesome he showed us his way on doing things and answered questions we ever had with no hesitation! If you are ready for snapper season this is the boat to be on! Highly recommend!
