Captain Joe was the best! He can definitely read the room and adapt to his guests ( we are not an expereinced fishing family but our 7 year old is a budding enthusiast ). We took our family of four on his boat this afternoon and it was fun for the whole family. The Captain was patient, humerous, and an overall good guy (also very well informed about the area, all the fishing spots to hit, and everything else we were curious about). Our 7 year old peppered Captain Joe with questions and our almost 4 year old had a few too to he handled with ease. The boat is well equipped and we did bait and lure fishing both in deep waters and closer to the slip. The captain instructed and helped our 7 year old cast out and reel up the catches. We caught 9 fish and took 7 home for dinner including a really great flounder. We got to see sharks in the water too. We’d book this boat again!!

Captain Joe was amazing on Fish Finder III. We orginally booked on a windy day. He recommended waiting a day and luckily they had an available slot. Our trip was perfect. We started at a reef near shore and caught 5 smaller sharks and 15+ sea bass, a hog fish and a ring tail. We moved further out in the ocean and found a school of spade fish. We caught 7 or more spades, a few sea bass and a flounder. We kept 4 of the spade fish and 1 was large enough to make the board for the largest catch this season. It weighed 6.22 pounds and was 17 inches. Captain Joe cleaned our fish and recommended a fantastic restuarant to cook the fish for us. We will definitely book with Joe again!

Conditions weren't the greatest and Joe gave us the option of a refund or still go out and give it a try. We decided to give it a shot anyways. Started out a little tough trying to find some bait and having a slow start to fishing. Joe was persistent and kept us moving and trying to find us some action. We eventually found some fish and everyone enjoyed the day. Joe gets the job done and makes sure you have a good time. He's a good guy and a great captain. Although he is a Bears fan, we didn't hold it against him.
We went outside our comfort zone and booked a fishing trip, which everyone but my husband was nervous about. We were lucky enough to book Joe, who took us to the hottest spot, where we caught a shark within the first minute of being there, along with toad fish, more sharks and a huge red drum. Captain Joe was funny and friendly and was always “Joe-Cain” around, full pun intended lol. Joe was very helpful and amazing and we can’t wait to go deep sea fishing again!
Our guide told us before we started that he had some tough slow fishing that morning and said if we wanted a refund, we could get one… we went anyways. AND BOY ARE WE GLAD WE DID! An amazing time for my wife and I! We WILL be coming back!

I wanted to take my two 8yr olds fishing to see how they’d like it and to learn how to bait hooks, cast and to hook a fish. Captain Joe was extremely helpful, PATIENT, and knowledgeable. We booked the 4hr package and my kids were begging to extend it longer. It was a great experience and one we will do again and again. I’d highly recommend Fish Finder. Thank you Captain Joe!
Went out with Captain Joe for a 1/2 day tour. He was awesome. Great guy with advanced knowledge of the waterways and fish industry overall. He was able to quickly spot some bait bombs and we were off for the big ones. Joe delivered. We caught 2 big reds about 40” long, a shark and several smaller trout and junk fish. I was most impressed with Joe’s ability to size our capabilities quickly and offer suggestions. When a fish hit he walked us through every step to get them in the boat. We had a blast. Thanks again for the great time!
Are Captain Joe on fishfinder three was very helpful. On our way out we stopped and caught some live bait and headed on out, caught a few shark he had my son Casey reel in a monster King macro. After weighing it and getting my son‘s name on the board with Joe, we ate at the marina overall it was an awesome experience. I can’t wait for next year.

Booked this fishing charter for my two boys and myself on our spring break vacation, and it was an absolute blast. Experience could not have been better. Captain was very knowledgeable and was great with my boys. We were able to catch a huge bonito, and it just made my sons year! When we come back to the area we will for sure be booking with him again! If you're looking for a great fishing trip, look no further. Just book it! Thanks again captain! We truely appreciate everything!! What an awesome day it was!

Captain Joe was amazing! Took my two boys out (7 & 10) and had a blast. Got us on some good fishing including a shark as big as my youngest. Very good helping the kids and teaching them about the fishing as well. we all had a blast and will definitely try to fish with Captain Joe again when we are back in the area!

We caught Trout, Spanish Mackeral, Blurfish, Sea Bass and even some Toad Fish. We had three sharks on the line but unfortunately the wrong gear(we weren’t targeting sharks), and all three managed to cut the line. Over 20 fish on a 4 hour trip. captain Joe was great!
