Amazing family fishing trip!
Reel & Chill - Fish & Snorkel on July 29, 20263 adults1 child

Thaddeus was amazing, really knows the area. He recommended staying closer to shore based on water and wind conditions. We ended up being only tour group from multiple different companies with any fish for the day. We brought in a kingfish and two mahi-mahi. We took the mahi to Tarpon’s table and had a great dinner.

Reported catch:
Dolphin (Mahi Mahi)
King Mackerel (Kingfish)

Captain Lawrence was great from beginning to end. This isn’t our first nor 5th time deep sea fishing. Music on point, customer service on point, we caught a keeper within 10 minutes. We had a group of six and everyone got to chance to catch a fish. We will definitely book again. Thank you for a great experience.
