Couldnt recommend Captain Ben more. Not only did he put me on all sorts of fish, he catered to my every need. We went to a variety of different spots and he was super flexible with his gameplan based on conditions and my perosnal preferences. My only regret is that I booked a half-day instead of a full-day. I will be back again to fish with Capt Ben!
Thank you very much for the kind words Clark. Hope we can do it again!

I told Captain Ben I wanted to catch barracuda to again relive the memories when I came down to the Keys decades ago during a college road trip. Scooting around the beautiful Florida Keys’ flats pursuing Cuda,” and then catching the toothy critters was a fantastic thill. Outstanding trip! Thanks Captain Ben!
Thanks for coming out Eric!

Ben was a pleasure to fish with. Right on time and ready to roll. We hit several spots and saw some early and heavy action. Flats fishing is such a different experience than inshore fishing. we were sight fishing and casting right to the. Gear was very good wich always makes for a great day.
Thank you Bill!
Ben worked hard to get us on fish. Very friendly and knowledgeable
Thanks Bob!
Capt. Ben is the guy I would want to fish with all the time! Caught countless snappers, a couple of barracuda, and rounded off the morning with a beautiful lemon shark! A fight of a lifetime! What a great day!
Thanks Joe!
