PERFECT beginner trip perfect beginner trip
2 Hour inshore catch and release on August 6, 20262 adults2 children

this was the perfect beginner experience for me and my nephews as they are not as comfortable and open water so they ensure was great and at about an hour and a half. They were pretty much done since they are younger kids their attention span is about the same as a fly. We got several hits and we’re able to catch each fish and release since the boys are skittish the catch and release was perfect. Our captain was very attentive to the boys answering all their questions (they sure do talk a lot!) I would recommend this to anyone who wants to take their younger kids out for a first time fish on the water !

Great trip for my kids!
2 Hour inshore catch and release on July 24, 20262 adults1 child

My 7 year old recent got into fishing. My daughter was exited to try fishing in the ocean as wrll! Lou did fantastic talking with them, asking my son questions to get him excited, and giving him tasks to do to get the lines trolling and catching. Both kids had some good bites, unfortunately we did not land every one that had taken the lures. it was a great 2 hour morning trip. We were in before it was hot. We know next to nothing about fishing, let alone fishing in the ocean. highly recommend. we did intercostal fishing, the water was smooth and we even learned about locals and who owns what huge houses and yatchs.

Successful Fishing Trip!
4 Hour Offshore Trip on July 15, 20263 adults

We had an amazing time with Captain Louis! The boat was extremely clean and well maintained. Captain Louis was attentive, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond to make sure our fishing trip was the best it could be. He knew exactly where to take us, and we caught several fish—including two sharks! My kids will never forget this experience, and I'm so grateful for the memories we made together. If you're looking for a fun, family-friendly fishing charter with an experienced captain, I highly recommend Captain Louis. We can't wait to book another trip!
