3 hour fishing charter on August 4, 20251 adult1 child

Captain Tom was awesome! Had a great time on the banana river. I wish I didn’t show up late. Probably would have caught some more fish. I Would definitely go out again.

Bad fishing experience.
3 hour fishing charter on October 23, 20252 adults

Bad fishing experience. All we did was drove around fished. On the average, 15 minutes at 3 locations didn't catch anything. I highly would never recommend him Capt. Tom.

Tom Carver
Response from Captain

15 minutes at 3 locations? That’s a blatant lie! You booked me last minute when your other fishing charter canceled on you I had to get you out last minute during extremely bad weather that week. Its impossible to catch fish every single day no matter how hard you try. Its also extremely deficult to make every person happy. Even after taking HUGE loss by offering you a giant discount because the fishing was so slow. Just goes to show generosity doesn’t always win over difficult people. By the way…You’re welcome for only charging you a fraction of what you were supposed to pay… it literally covered my expenses for the day. I actually didn’t make a dime Bless you my friend.
