We had a great day out with Bottoms Up! Capt. Justin had the right balance of patience and determination, and first mate John was the hardest working mate I've ever seen on a charter. Together they were easy to talk to, fun to be around, and put us on the fish! We didn't feel rushed for time and even if we had not caught anything, it still would have been a great charter. Luckily though, we caught several kings, a few snapper, some other bottom fish BUT also a sailfish!! Truly a great experience, and we cannot wait to go out with them again.
Thank you so much!!! We are so glad you had such a great time. We hope you made some amazing memories. Hope to have you aboard in the future.
Booked a 5 hr near shore trip and capt Justin and mate John didn't disappoint. Probably 30 to 40 fish that were kept and brought back to the dock. On way back in capt Justin saw what he thought was a bait ball but cone yo find out was a school of jack cravelle. We hooked into one and for the next 20 to 30 minutes I fought this 40 to 50 pound jack until I landed it. What a battle and what a personal best for me. Gonna DEFINITELY BOOK with captain Justin and 1st mate John again and doing a deep sea trip next time. Thank so much captain for an awesome time. Can't wait till next time.
Thank you so much!! We appreciate your business and glad you had a great time. We look Forward to having you aboard in the future.
Perfect day fishing. Captain Justin Gay & Mate John were perfect hosts keeping our hooks bated & removing caught fish from our poles. Their knowledge of the species, answering questions and catching methodology was spot on. We caught Trigger, Snapper, and Sea Bass. Our catch was fileted and our evenings dinner was fantastic. Great Day of fishing and family togetherness. Highly recommended.
Thank you so much! We hope your day was exactly what you expected and hope you made lasting memories. We hope we get the pleasure of having you aboard in the future.
Me (Grammy), two teen grandsons and my daughter had the best time on our Bottoms Up fishing trip!! We caught kingfish, snappers, and much more that I don’t recall the names of. Captain Justin and John were great with the boys. It was such a fun experience! We all, including the other 9 in our family, sure enjoyed our fish that evening (restaurant cooked, thank you Capt)!
Thank you so much for the review. We are so glad that you had such a great time and made some great memories. And I’m glad that the rest of the family got to enjoy your catch. We hope we get the pleasure of welcoming you aboard in the future. 
We caught Snapper , Sea Bass, Blue Runner, and our Captain Justin caught two massive Cobia. We will have fish on the menu for the next month. John, first Mate, was exceptionally efficient and kept us all quite busy. Always choose Bottoms Ùp for the best charter. Thank you so much Captain Justin and John, First Mate. The memories are wonderful ones!
Thank you!!!
