Jae Choi5.0VerifiedNewThe Best Fishing Trip– We’ll Definitely Be Back!
Half Day Trip on September 19, 2026 • 6 adults • 2 childrenWe had an incredible trip with Captain Jacob! From start to finish, the entire experience was top-notch. He was punctual, highly responsible, and very kind throughout the trip. The boat was spotless and well-maintained, and all the fishing rods and gear provided were in excellent condition. He took us straight to great fishing spots, and we really appreciated how patiently and thoroughly he coached us on technique—his instruction made catching fish so much fun for everyone. We had a wonderful time out on the water and are already planning to book another trip with him soon. Highly recommended!
Andrew RuthRepeat angler5.0VerifiedJacob works hard every time
Half Day Trip on October 9, 2025 • 3 adults • 1 childThis was our 3rd trip with Captain Jacob as we always make it a priority to fish with him when we’re down in the area. He knows all these waters so incredibly well that even in very windy conditions, he knew places we could hide and hunt for fish. well, the fishing wasn’t as on fire this time as it was every other time, Jacob worked hard to find the fish that were around, using his trademark of live shrimp under corks. Live shrimp make a huge difference, and Jacob always brings enough for a couple days. This time we brought my wife and my three year-old daughter and Jacob was great with both of them making the trip enjoyable even when it was chilly for the three-year-old. thanks captain.
Jacob Garcowski5.0VerifiedCapt Jacob made sure we all caught fish
Half Day Trip - 1:00 PM on August 8, 2026 • 5 adults • 2 childrenCapt Jacob was great, he even stayed out a little bit longer so every kid was able to land a fish (and they were all keepers!). And when we got back to the dock he cleaned our catch for us. He was great at keeping our lines baited and would cast them to prime spots for the kids. Just a note, there is no shade on the boat, so especially if you take the afternoon trip, make sure to be ready for lots of sun
Laura Fischer5.0VerifiedGreat day with some big fish
Half Day Trip on June 12, 2026 • 3 adultsCaptain Jacob made it so easy for our family to enjoy the experience and was incredibly knowledgeable about area fishing, species preferences, etc. He took us to several prime spots, and we caught seven different kinds during our morning charter, the highlight being four huge red drum that were over two feet each. Great captain, great fishing, great morning. Would highly recommend.

Half Day Trip on March 21, 2026 • 4 adultsWe had an amazing day on the water with Jacob and his friend! We caught fish, saw bald eagles and enjoyed the breathtaking water view! The guys were polite, friendly and extremely helpful allowing each person to do as much or as little as we wished for fishing. They took us to different areas in search of a variety of fish. We highly recommend booking a trip with Jacob if you are in the area!!

Jacob provided everything we needed and did an amazing job of taking us to various spots, sharing what he knows about the fish in the area, keeping our hooks baited and then cleaning the keepers. We caught a good variety of fish, some large and some small. Cooked about half of it the night we caught it and it fed 6 of us! Delicious! Very pleased with the catch and the experience. Highly recommend!
