3/4 Day Trip (PM) - Offshore

Catching in rough waters

VERIFIED

Although conditions were less than ideal, we caught fish. Our crew of 7 joined RJ on the Nonsense and had a great day. We did get saltwater blasted navigating to locations as the water was rough. He followed the birds and put us on tuna then we opted to bottom fish, where it was a little calmer. We caught trigger, grouper, etc. Apparently several boats went out that day and gave up due to conditions. We hung in there and made the best of what mother nature dealt. A less than perfect day fishing is still a good day! Thanks to RJ for sticking with it and making the day enjoyable. He was great!

Beyond expectations!

VERIFIED

I'd hoped my boys and my mom could catch 1 good-sized fish each. We were landing fish all day! Mahi, Bonita, Barracuda, snapper, and Grouper were just a few we landed. We trolled the first few hours and bottom-fished the rest. Captain RJ was unbelievably awesome and patient and can multitask like few I've seen before. Go with this charter! You won't be disappointed.
