3 Hour Surf trip with Capt. Ryan
3 Hour Surf Fishing Charter - 7:00 AM on May 19, 2026
Ryan had everything setup and ready to go when we arrived. He showed me a lot about how his poles were rigged and his techniques to cast a long surf rod. After we caught a few pompano in the first two hours, the fishing conditions turned for the worse. Ryan offered us the opportunity to cut short the trip by one hour with a discount. We took him up on the offer since the odds of more catch were low. When done he did filet one fish for us, which was all we wanted, and he had that for dinner the next day. Pompano is excellent eating! Overall, a great experience and I learned a lot about surf fishing in this region.

2 Hr trip with Ryan
2 Hour Surf Fishing Charter - 2:30 PM on December 22, 2025
This was our first beach guided fishing trip and it was a trip to remember. It was myself, my son and my sister, her husband and 3 children. Ryan was an awesome guide! He was very informative, attentive and great with the kids. We were able to look for seashells and watch the dolphins in between the bobs of the poles! He was ON IT when it came to watching the lines and baiting them. He put us ON! We caught blue fish. We were the only ones catching fish on the beach that day which made it that much more exciting. It was an absolute amazing experience and we all would highly recommend booking with him. We would definitely book Ryan again.

Amazing time surf fishing!
3 Hour Surf Fishing Charter on March 1, 2026
We had the time of our lives on this trip. Our guide Ryan, was very professional and knowledgeable about what he does. He’s very easy to get along with, and we’ll share information about the area as well, Ryan had all of the gear already set up prior to us showing up, so that way we got the entire time of actually fishing. We love that all the Gear was provided for us so we didn’t have to bring anything except for our good attitudes and energy to reel in some fish! This was the best part of our vacation, and we will definitely be doing this again!

Surf Fishing in December Rain
3 Hour Surf Fishing Charter - 7:30 AM on December 7, 2025
We had a fun and successful trip yesterday with Ryan. He was very knowledgeable and helpful. He already had everything set up and ready as soon as we arrived and the fish started biting as we were walking up. We were on to the pompano and they were biting all morning, even in the rain. We ended the day only one fish shy of our limit. We were very pleased with our experience. It was a lot of fun and we learned a lot from Ryan. I highly recommend this charter, and Ryan as a guide
