4 Hour Trip – Multi-species on July 19, 2025 • 4 adultsCaptain PJ and mate Ian showed me and my family a great time. We had our first fish in the boat within 15minutes, a 40lb King mackerel. They are both very knowledgeable and could navigate those Bahama waters with ease.

Matthew BrinkRepeat angler•New York, US•Member since 20204 trips4.7VerifiedHalf Day Trip with Ryan
4 Hour Trip – Multi-species on January 5, 2022 • 3 adults • 1 childHad an awesome half day trip with Ryan from hunter charters. Boat was nice and he was a very experienced fisherman. I forgot to take Dramamine and wound up feeling like crap an hour in. Ryan made sure I had an awesome day of fishing. The cuda in the pic was swimming around our boat for hours and he tried to get him to bite. As we were about to take of the reel started screaming, fish on. Made the whole trip. Id highly recommend anyone book with them who's in the Bahamas looking for a charter.

4 Hour Trip – Multi-species on February 26, 2022 • 2 adultsWe had an amazing time on our 4 hour charter!! My girlfriend just wanted to catch something we could enjoy eating, and the crew made sure we didn’t leave empty handed. We caught two beautiful Mahi Mahi in the open water then caught some small fish bottom fishing. They went the extra mile to make sure we had fun and we’re very informative!! Highly recommend!!
Amber Brown•Texas, USMember since 20224.3VerifiedHalf day fishing trip
4 Hour Trip – Multi-species on June 9, 2022 • 4 adults • 3 childrenWe had a wonderful time with these captains! The only mistake we made was not booking the 8 hour day! They went above and beyond to make sure we ALL had a great time. Unfortunately we didn’t catch any big fish but we caught quite a few small ones, seen a few sharks, and snorkeled with sea turtles! We are definitely coming back! Thanks so much for making this the best day of our trip!!

Captain BJ and Ian were an amazing crew! They were extremely pleasant and fun to be around! Not much luck with the fish biting due to the tide going out and choppy seas, but a great time regardless. I did catch a beatiful squirrel fish, and also hooked something huge but couldnt quite land it! Our family had a great time though and would go out again with this company and crew no doubt.
Got this fishing Trip for my older grandchildren and they had nothing but great things to say about their trip. My grandson said if they get back soon he's looking this captain up because he was awesome..
We thank you so much for choosing us. Especially us being part of your trip. We go all out no matter what it takes offshore or inshore😃. See in future
Excellent trip with a superb crew who were extremely knowledgeable and couldn't do a enough for me and my son. Would highly recommend!
JP made the trip so much fun. Didnt have luck offshore, but he made sure to put us on the fish before we went back. would definitely book with him again
Very friendly crew. Clean boat. caught plenty of fish.
