we were out Fishing from 8 am and started catching speckled trout within five minutes of dropping our live bait overboard. we also caught quite a few lady Fish, which kept my family of four busy. Captain Colby moved us on to another spot an instantly started catching into more speckled trout this time the fish were as big as 22 inches and perfect keeping size. We then moved on again and I caught a snapper, which was well within size to keep. the captain made sure we were all kept baited up the whole time and also give us great advice, especially my wife who was her first time Fishing ever . Our final spot was in the mangrove ( i think thats what they are called) and shallow water to catch snook and once again the beginer didn’t disappoint ! well done to my wife donna for catching the most keepers of the day. Our two sons had a great day also catching plenty of fish. I just wish we were about to do another four hours with captain Colby to do it all again .

thank you very much
Being unfamiliar with any AMI charters, I was nervous about booking from afar. You never know if the service will live up to the hype. But Captain Colby proved that his 5-star rating is the real deal. He went above and beyond for our fishing-obsessed 11yr old. And after today’s adventure, his love for it grew. So a big THANK YOU - Captain, for a legit great time out there today! Also, for the deep rooted local knowledge and information you shared. The learning experience out there today is something that will lasts a lifetime. We’ll be in touch again!

thank you very much
We had an amazing time on our trip with Captain Colby. He is very knowledgeable about the area. We caught our quota. We had an We had a great time catching trout and fighting some snook all morning long. He answered a ton of questions. He made it an absolute blast for our family. We can’t wait to book another trip with him. If you’re looking for someone who is very knowledgeable and make sure that you have a great time and knows where the fish are, captain Colby is your guy!

thank you very much

we had sn awesome time out today. Captain Colby was at dock geared up and ready when we arrived. He had an overflowing live well full of bait for us. We’ve do e other outings where we fished so hard that we ran out and had to switch to artificial bait but not today. We fished hard, had tons of fish in the boat and more that we lost and the live well was still hopping with bait and there were moments where Colby was flipping off a fish and baiting a hook as fast as he could. He worked hard for his clients today!(my family). I appreciated that he did all the work today and I was able to enjoy some quality fishing. Back home aboard our 19’ Whaler I’m the guy working hard yo keep the kid’s line baited and in the water while steering the boat. Today Captain Colby did that extremely professionally and everyone caught more than expected. highlights from the day include: double hook ups…a Florida trifecta, Snook-Trout-Redfish, multi species as kids requested… “I’ve never seen a salt water catfish”, “first snook”, “what’s a yellow jack”, “first redfish”, “will we catch mango snapper”, “will we catch anythig we can eat”??? I cant say that Captain Colby could produce the same awesome day for you and your family but I’d bet he will do everything he can to try! And thats as good as you can expect in todays world. Pictures say it all. We kept enough to eat tonight and released more than we expected to catch.

I really appreciate you and your awesome review thank you so much and thanks for booking Bill 👍🏼🙏🏻
Treated my 8 and 6 year old boys for their first salt water adventure while we were in town. They had an absolutely wonderful time catching a bevy of fish. Trout, grouper, snapper, and even a couple eclectic fish like some needles and flounders. Captain Colby was a rock star and gave them the 5 star experience I expect them to keep as a core memory for the rest of their lives. Thanks

thank you
