My husband and I took our two grandkids on their first fishing trip and it couldn't have gone better. It was easy to meet Captain Alex and he was right on time. He was patient and kind with the kids and got us on fish everywhere!!! He filleted the fish we caught perfectly. We also appreciate that he suggested some great picture spots and took photos of the family:) This was a super successful adventure and the kids had a blast! Thank you Alex!!!

Incredible Day on the Water with Captain Alek!

VERIFIED

If you’re looking for the ultimate fishing experience, look no further than Captain Alek’s charter! From the moment we stepped on board, Alek made us feel welcome, safe, and completely at ease. His knowledge of the local waters is top-notch he knew exactly where to go and had us on fish in no time. Whether you’re a seasoned angler or a first-timer, Captain Alek tailors the trip perfectly to your skill level. He was patient, professional, and genuinely excited every time someone got a bite. The boat was spotless and well-equipped, and you could tell Alek takes pride in both his gear and his guest experience. What really set this charter apart was the energy and passion Alek brings to the trip. It’s not just a job for him it’s clear he loves what he does, and that enthusiasm is contagious. We ended the day with a cooler full of fish and memories that will last a lifetime. Highly recommend booking with Captain Alek you won’t regret it!

Unforgettable Fishing Trip – 10/10 Experience!

VERIFIED

We had the most incredible time out on the water with Alek! From the moment we stepped onto the boat, we knew we were in good hands. The vibes were great, the gear was top-notch, and the captain’s knowledge of the area was seriously impressive. Not only did we catch a bunch of fish, but the highlight of the trip was reeling in a shark—yes, a SHARK! It was an adrenaline rush we’ll never forget. The captain handled everything like a pro and made sure everyone felt safe and excited the whole time. Whether you’re a first-time fisherman or a seasoned angler, this is the kind of trip you dream about. Can’t recommend this experience enough—book it, you won’t regret it!

Incredible, Memorable, Everything Taken Care Of

VERIFIED

This was our first time open water fishing with our kids and Captain Alek made the experience a 10/10. We had small children (8yrs-2yrs) and Alek was patient, understanding, flexible, and went above and beyond to make sure that our family’s experience was safe and fun. He is so knowledgeable about technique, the best spots, tides, and the habits of different species — it’s clear that this is a deep passion of his and anyone, families especially, are in great hands on his charter. We will definitely be back!

The Captain is truly passionate about the sea and his work. He brings a great vibe and real expertise to everything he does. I had always dreamed of catching a shark, and thanks to Bearcut Bandit Charters, that dream came true. It was a thrilling escalation of surprises, culminating in a grand finale: a 9-foot, angry bull shark.
