Richard Eck5.0VerifiedGreat trip!
Half Day Trip (AM) on May 3, 2026 • 6 adultsAwesome experience, guys were helpful and friendly!
Andrew VariRepeat angler5.0VerifiedHalf-Day Trip with Captain Ray and Austin
Half Day Trip (PM) on March 4, 2023 • 2 adultsBy far the best charter we’ve done. Great boat and equipment. Very easy process and a laid back feel. We had great weather and calm seas. Limited out on Yellowtail Snapper and got a 40lb Black Grouper. It was nothing but action from when we dropped in until the end of the trip. We’ve definitely found our new charter boat for our yearly trip! I would highly recommend this crew to anyone!
Ramon Andreu5.0Mahi madness
Full Day Trip – Offshore on March 31, 2023The crew from the beginning were very welcoming and very detailed. The walk threw of the gear and the day was very helpful and there attention to detail was great. They did everything possible to make sure we had a great time and we sure had a blast with the icing on the cake being us limiting out on mahi. Will definitely be going back for round 2 thank you guys.
FishingBooker Member5.0Awesome Trip
Full Day Trip – Offshore on April 3, 2023Ray and Randy were and are exceptional outdoorsman and experienced fishermen. I took 2 very important clients on an offshore trip and we caught fish as soon as we started trolling. I highly recommend the Crazy Banana and her crew. Thanks again Ray and Randy!!!!
Chris Anderson5.0Full day fishing excursion w/ Capt Randy
Full Day Trip – Offshore on April 22, 2023Excellent fishing trip. Capt. Randy and his crew do everything they can to get you on the fish!
Michael MargolfRepeat angler5.0VerifiedGreat boat, captain, and half day on the water
Half Day Trip (AM) on December 29, 2025 • 6 adults • 2 childrenWe ended up with Captain Mike on a beautiful tournament Fountain boat. With 4 kids and 2 adults on-board, Captain Mike got us to the reef quickly and on some smaller yellowtail. He was terrific helping the kids bait, teaching some free line techniques, learning about the fishery, and most importantly landing some fish. Captain was diligent in moving to another spot later during the morning in search of larger fish. We found them including a large nassau grouper; a highlight for our crew. A great time was had by all! We would charter with them again next time in the Keys.
