Awesome trip for the kids and the adults.
2 Hour Trip – Fish N Fun - 1:00 PM on June 19, 20262 adults3 children

James was awesome, went and did a two hour trip for my birthday with the wife and kids, kids had an amazing experience seeing the dolphins and swimming in the sand bar. As well they helped with fishing when I did a little fishing with James as he was showing me how to better my skills, as Im trying to pick up fishing again. Caught a nice size fish but it came off the line last second as I was reeling but none the less it was a great time. I would definitely recommend and will come back to fish with James. Thank you again.

Great experience!
3 Hour Trip – Inshore/Nearshore on June 12, 20264 adults

Captain Jamie was fun and excellent with our 14 yr old first timers. They caught a couple of fish, had a stop at the sandbar swam and caught some crabs. We hit bird island and fished and he gave a great tour of the area with a lot of information and fishing tips. It was a lot packed into 3 hours but seemed relaxing and fun. The next morning the boys took what they learned and hit the pier for more fishing! Thank you for the experience and getting our anglers on track! A truly once in a lifetime experience.

Awesome time
2 Hour Trip – Fish N Fun on April 1, 20265 adults1 child

We had an awesome time fishing! There were six of us, 5 adults and 1 child. Captain Brent was great!! He showed up right on time and was very helpful. He knows a lot about fishing. The location he brought us to was perfect. Caught a Jack fish on the first cast and a lot of speckled sea trout. I wish I would have booked a longer trip than 2 hours. I would definitely recommend Captain Brent! I looked forward to booking another fishing charter and will request Captain Brent.

2 Hour Trip – Fish N Fun - 3:00 PM on February 17, 20264 adults

We got out in a rough day for fishing, but the captain was extremely knowledgeable of the area. We caught some fish but honestly even if we didnt the company alone was worth the trip. Ive been on a ton of charters in florida and most of the time im just watching someone fish and they give me the rod when they catch, but here we ACTUALLY fished. Even my mother who has never touched a rod before was fishing and having a blast! 10/10 I recommend

Great Time in Sarasota
2 Hour Trip – Fish N Fun on March 12, 20265 adults

Me and my buddies made our way down from the Georgia low country to Sarasota for spring break. We some bass fishers that don’t know a lick about salt water fishing but we had a great time. Captain reminded me of my great uncle Bobby from Jonesboro. He had plenty of experience and good equipment. Overall a great time and when I get back to the low country I’m telling the whole county of Brunswick about my time.
