Unforgettable Day on the Water
4 HR Saltwater (AM) on July 6, 20264 adults

I can't say enough good things about my trip with Jeshua Kavanaugh. From the moment we got on the water, you could tell he genuinely loves what he does and knows these waters inside and out. He worked hard all day to keep us on fish, and it definitely paid off. The highlight of the trip was landing an absolute trophy, a 48-inch bull redfish! On top of that, we caught several other species and had action throughout the day. Jeshua was patient, knowledgeable, and made the entire experience fun and relaxed while sharing tips along the way. This wasn't just a fishing trip, it was a memory I'll never forget. If you're thinking about booking a trip, don't hesitate. Jeshua will put you on fish and make sure you have an amazing time on the water. I already can't wait to book another trip with him!

If you want to find the best this is your guy!
3- HR Saltwater (AM) on April 1, 20262 adults1 child

What an experience. We booked a fishing trip out of Dayton with Jeshua for me, my brother, and my son who had never fished before. I wasn’t sure how he’d take to it… but Jeshua was incredible from the start. So patient, so calm, and genuinely invested in making sure my son enjoyed every second. He took the time to teach him properly, build his confidence, and make it fun. By the end of the trip, my son had gone from never holding a rod… to looking like a proper little pro. That doesn’t happen without someone who really cares. The fishing itself was amazing, great guidance, great spots, and a brilliant atmosphere throughout his knowledge of the water is unparalleled But more than anything, thank you Jeshua. You made it special for my son, and that’s something we won’t forget. If you’re thinking of booking, just do it. Whether you’re experienced or a complete beginner, you’ll be in the best hands. 🎣

Best Captain EVER
4 HR Saltwater (AM) on May 19, 20263 adults

I rarely fill these things out, but Captain Jeshua Kavanaugh was incredible and made this trip a life long memory for my family. We told him we were looking to catch some bigger fish as we were used to bass fishing and he put us right on some snook and redfish. we caught several 15-25lbs fish and made memories to last a life time! He was warm and friendly and always helpful even when we made mistakes or got our lines caught. I have been on several charters and he is by far the best captain I have ever seen. Save yourself the research and book with Captain Jeshua ASAP!

Amazing Experience
4- HR Saltwater Night (PM) on September 30, 20252 adults

My wife and I went out for a 4 hour late afternoon charter with Jeshua. The weather was suspect at best. Rain, wind. Within 15 minutes of getting to our 1st location we had 5 catches. The weather cleared and we went for big fish. Eight big fish on the end of the line. Due to my inexperience, only brought one of them up into the boat. We would definitely recommend Jeshua to anyone! He made the whole afternoon one of best experiences. He definitely knows how to find the fish. He has great equipment and he has it baited and ready in the blink of an eye. Looking forward to booking him again. Jeff & Tamara Veldman

Incredible! All-around!
Special 5 hour trip for Andrew Minnich on March 22, 20262 adults

Jeshua was absolutely amazing! This was a relatively short notice trip with my 12 year old son. To put it simply, Jeshua was absolutely incredible. He knew exactly where to fish to find the big ones. He seemed genuinely excited about my son catching a big fish. Such a great and knowledgeable guide. 100% recommend this guide! We WILL book again!
