Bearcut Bandit Charters 

We booked this charter for our group of 6 and it exceeded every expectation. The captain and crew were professional, knowledgeable, and made sure everyone had a great time, whether experienced anglers or first-timers. The boat comfortably fit all six of us, and the crew knew the waters perfectly — we had lines in the water within minutes and the fish kept biting all day. They handled the bait, rigging, and netting, and even helped clean and bag our catch before we headed back to the dock. We ended the day with a cooler full of fish and can't wait to book again — highly recommend for families, friend groups, or anyone wanting a top-notch day on the water!

We booked an 8-hour charter with Captain Alek Fig and had an incredible day on the water. We started off bottom fishing and quickly caught over 20 snappers. Once we had those, we headed further offshore and ran into a once-in-a-lifetime school of mahi-mahi, catching about 20 of them. Through the whole trip, Captain Alek was kind, worked hard all over the deck, and made the actual fishing easy for all of us. He jumps right in to help bait hooks and clear lines, keeping things stress-free no matter your experience level. If you want a straightforward, highly successful day of fishing with a captain who knows exactly what he is doing, book Alek.

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!
