Hooked for life!
4 Hour Trip – Morning on August 12, 20252 adults2 children

"I couldn't have asked for a better first time fishing experience. From the moment we stepped on the boat, Captain Perry and First Mate KP made us feel welcome and at ease. It was a perfect day on the water with our boys, where we not only caught a lot of fish but also learned so much about the local marine life. KP's knowledge was impressive and his respectful demeanor made him a pleasure to be around. Captain Perry's friendly nature and warm personality made the whole trip feel less like a charter and more like a day out with good friends. This father-son team is truly a special find. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a top-notch fishing adventure."

Thank you so much for the kind words Amanda! We had so much fun with y’all today. Everyone did great fishing and had good attitudes despite the little bit of “liquid sunshine” 🌧️ that found us. 😂 We were super impressed with everyone’s eagerness to learn and I can’t tell you just how stoked I am for you to learn that tricky flounder bite in such a short time!! Seriously! That was awesome. Safe travels back home and we hope you join us again next year if y’all come back down to MB for vacation. Best, Capt. Perry

Great fishing trip!
4 Hour Trip – Morning on August 5, 20253 adults3 children

If you are looking for a great fishing trip for you and your family, Capt. Perry and his first mate JP, are the ones that you want to take you out on the water! They were both very patient with us and helped our boys and their friend (ages 10, 11, 11). Both of them explained everything that was going on and what type of fish we caught. This was the boys first trip and they loved it and had a great experience.

Captain was very helpful and responsive to all of our questions before the trip. Once on the boat everything was as promised. The fishing was great. We were interested in flounder and thanks to Captain Perry and his mate JP we caught our share. All in all a great day on the water with some really nice people.

I've been in the business of training kids for 22 years through my gymnastics business. I've recently semi-retired from the day to day of that business and just started this fishing charter business with my son and first mate JP. With a love for boats, adventure and the great outdoors I pursued getting my captains license to share this passion with others. Our family has been spending the duration of our summers here at the coast fishing and boating for the last 6 years. Now we'd love to share our love for fishing, and spending time with family in the great outdoors with you. My son JP has a joy for fishing like no other and the skills to teach and share his depth of knowledge with others no matter what their age or ability. We're here as your guide team to show you a great time on the water and help you land the fish of your dreams.
