Bearcut Bandit Charters 

If you are looking for an unforgettable day on the water, look no further. We booked this charter hoping for a good day of fishing, but Captain Alek completely exceeded our expectations from start to finish. Captain Alek knows these waters like the back of his hand. Within no time, he put us exactly where the fish were biting, and we were pulling in some incredibly high-quality mangrove snapper. The action was non-stop, and the gear and boat were in pristine condition.The absolute highlight of the trip, however, happened after the lines were pulled in. Captain Alek took a portion of our fresh mangrove snapper right there on the deck and prepared the most spectacular, delicious ceviche I have ever tasted. It simply does not get any fresher than eating your own catch cured in citrus and spices right out on the water. It was the perfect ending to an already phenomenal day. Phenomenal service, highly knowledgeable captain, and top-tier hospitality. We will absolutely be booking with Captain Alek again next time we are in town! Highly recommend!

Our trip with Captain Alek was nothing short of incredible! From the moment we left the dock, it was obvious we were fishing with someone who truly knows the water. We had an amazing day, catching red snapper, mangrove snapper, and the highlight of the trip—a massive 61-inch mahi mahi. The experience of landing that fish was unforgettable. We had to chase it through a bait ball while it was fleeing from a jumping marlin. It was an incredible and thanks to Captain Alek’s quick thinking, expert boat handling, and calm guidance, we were able to hook and land the fish. On top of that, we came just one snapper short of limiting out for our entire group. Captain Alek worked tirelessly to keep us on the fish and made sure everyone had a great time. Thank you again, Captain Alek, for your professionalism, knowledge, and outstanding skill. This was a trip we’ll be talking about for years to come, and we can’t wait to book another charter with you. If you’re looking for an unforgettable fishing experience, Captain Alek is the one to call!

surprised our 4 fish loving kids with a first time experience of sea fishing. we picked the 4 hour sunset trip. Capt Alek had the best reviews online especially for handling kids on the boat. he sure lived up to the reviews! kids loved the ride to and from the fishing spot too. Each of the kids caught fish including barracudas and even a nurse shark! insane experience. kids havent stopped raving about. boat itself was well maintained and constantly kept clean. Capt Alek provided ice cold drinks. bathroom was well kept too. A definite must do in Miami! and will definitely redo this experience with the kids- 6-8 hours long!

Thank you Captain Alek, for making our first sea fishing trip such a success! The entire experience went very smoothly. You definitely won't go wrong if you choose to go sea fishing with him, the boat was very clean, he prepared various drinks for us, and also provided the bait. He replied to messages very quickly after we booked, which helped us stay in touch and finally meet smoothly at the departure point. The whole fishing trip lasted four hours. He was very patient in teaching us how to fish,we had absolutely no experience at all ! and in the end, we caught a lot of snappers. We will definitely recommend Captain Alek to our friends! Looking forward to our next sea fishing trip!

We only did a half day 7am-1pm and still hooked into around 12 fish between 4 guys and kept 10. A few bonita, a blue runner, and and around 8 blackfin tuna. Alek was very passionate about making sure we were figured out the correct way to jig for the Tuna so that everyone had a shot to get one. He would mark them on his screen and swing around if we drifted to make sure we were still on top them. We doubled up a few times as well! At the end of the day he took the time to fillet all of them for us to take home. He even cut some pieces for us to eat with soy sauce while he did so. We now have weeks worth of fresh Tuna! I would defnitely recommend this off shore trip for half or full day.
