Me and my boys!
4 Hour Trip – Nearshore - 3:00 PM on June 5, 2026 • 5 adults • 1 child

Had an awesome time on this fishing trip! We were out on the water for about four hours, and every one of the six people in our group caught at least four or five fish. We were catching bluefish and Spanish mackerel all day long. Honestly, if we hadn't lost a few while fighting them and trying to get them into the boat, we probably would have landed another 8–10 fish. The captain was fantastic, knowledgeable, friendly, and worked hard to keep us on the fish. The deckhand Mason was equally amazing, always helping out, keeping lines untangled, and making sure everyone had a great experience. Whether you're an experienced angler or just looking for a fun day on the water, I highly recommend this charter. Everyone in our group had a great time, caught fish, and left with great memories. We'll definitely be back!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolute trip of a lifetime!
4 Hour Trip – Nearshore on May 27, 2026 • 2 adults

If you are looking to hammer some fish and have an absolute blast doing it, you need to book Gal-O-Mine Charters right now.From the second we stepped on the boat, Captain Jack was the ultimate professional. You can tell right away how much he truly cares about his guests and his craft. He didn’t just drive the boat; he kept us safe, stayed laser-focused on the radar, and put us right on top of the action. His communication and passion are completely top-notch.Down on the deck, his mates Mason and Reed are absolute machines. These boys know how to catch fish, period. They never stopped moving, keeping the lines wet, the bait fresh, and the energy high. When we hit a school and everything went chaotic, Mason and Reed were cool as cucumbers, gaffing fish, resetting lines, and coaching us through every fight. They are fantastic workers who hustle harder than any crew I’ve ever seen.We were absolutely hammering them all day, filling the coolers, and reeling until our arms were sore. It was a masterclass in offshore fishing. Huge thanks to Captain Jack, Mason, and Reed for an unforgettable day on the water. We will absolutely be back! Appreciate you all!! 💪🏻😎

Good times….
4 Hour Trip – Nearshore on July 23, 2026 • 5 adults

We battled the elements and won! Even though we got caught in a thunderstorm we ended up catching quite a few Blues and Spanish Mackerel. We even saw lots of Dolphins along the way. Captain Jack was spot on for navigating us to the best fishing spots and our first mate Mason was efficient in every way. They were both very friendly and we enjoyed their company. We had a great time and would highly recommend this duo to anyone that wants to have a fun filled inshore fishing adventure. Thanks for the memories!!

Fun morning on the water
4 Hour Trip – Nearshore on July 12, 2026 • 2 adults • 1 child

The kids and I booked a last minute charter and we couldn’t have picked a better crew. Captain Jack and mate Mason were outstanding! The fishing was alittle slow but they warned us about that when we arrived. we still caught several spanish mackerel and they even took us out alittle farther to let my kids try for a shark. All around a great experience, great crew, comfortable boat. We will definitely book again when we are back down next year.

Spanish Mackerel
