Great 5 star day
Three Hour Sportfishing on November 26, 2025 • 3 adults • 1 child
Took my 12 year old grandson on a charter with Killin' Time on the day before Thankksgiving. My grandson, who is a fishing fanatic, said "this was my best day fishing ever." It was a beautiful boat, Captain Tom and his first mate Junior were very friendly and hospitable. They were so nice to my grandson and took the time to teach him a few fishing techniques. Tom and Junior know their stuff. The highlight of the trip was my grandson reeling in a 5 foot sailfish. My grandson was so proud when Junior raised the sailfish flag on the boat. We lost count of the number of fish my grandson caught. After docking, Junior cleaned the keepers, we took the fish to a local restrauant where they cooked them up for us, doesn't get any fresher than that. I would highly recommend a fishing excursion on Killin' Time. I will with Captain Tom and Junior

Wahoo Finish on a Picture-Perfect Day!
Half Day Trip – Deep Sea Fishing AM on November 24, 2025 • 4 adults
We had an incredible day out on the Killin Time charter. The weather was perfect, the seas calm, and Captain Tom and mate Junior made the entire experience top-notch. When the morning bite slowed down, they shifted gears and put us on some solid bottom fish to start filling the box. Later, we went back to trolling — and my son capped off the trip by landing a beautiful wahoo to end the day!
Highly recommend this charter. Professional, upbeat crew and a fantastic experience from start to finish.

Fishing Review for Killin’ Time Charters 🎣
Half Day Trip – Deep Sea Fishing PM on July 13, 2025 • 2 adults
Had an incredible time out on the water with Killin’ Time Charters! Captain Tom and Junior were absolutely amazing—super friendly, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond to make sure me and my little sister had a blast.
We caught a ton of fish and were constantly learning something new. They didn’t just take us fishing—they taught us about local shipwrecks, ocean facts, and gave us a full experience out on the boat. You could tell they really knew their stuff and loved what they do.
If you’re looking for a fun, educational, and successful fishing trip, I highly recommend booking with Killin’ Time Charters. These guys know where the fish are and make the whole experience unforgettable!

Wonderful Captain,1st Mate and Family Experience!!!
3/4 Day Trip AM on July 6, 2025 • 2 adults • 2 children
This was a first time fishing trip in the Pompano Beach area, Hillsboro Inlet. Loved the fact that you didn't have to go hours out on the ocean to begin fishing. Fishing was much closer to the shore than we were use to on past fishing trips in other parts of Florida.
Tommy (Captain) and Jr (1st Mate) were amazing, hard working and friendly! They took the time to explain everything to us and to make the trip a great experience for our 2 sons, age 11 and 14yo. My husband and I had just as much fun as they did. The boat was beautiful. The 6 hour trip was a perfect amount of time. The convenience of a/c inside the cabin, bathroom, fridge/coolers, and upper / lower deck all made the experience that much more enjoyable.
We caught mahi mahi, blackfin tuna, and barracuda. The cost of the trip was offset by the amount of dinners we were able to have that week from the fresh fish we caught that day, which they filleted for us to take home. I would highly recommend taking a trip with Tommy and JR from Killing Time Charters! Lifetime memories were made!!!

July fishing trip
Half Day Trip – Deep Sea Fishing AM on July 3, 2025 • 2 adults • 2 children
These guys had us on fish before we were even supposed to be out of the inlet. Spent time fishing instead of traveling to where the fish are. We caught two big sail fish, one 83 inches, a mahi, king, 2 black fin, and a couple barracuda. So much excitement. At one point had three fish on at the same time. These guys were great with the kids, informative, and you can tell they love their job. We will be coming back for that wahoo!
