Awesome trip with BEST CREW EVER!
4 Hour Trip – Family Fast Action on April 1, 2026 • 3 adults • 3 children

My family and a friends family booked Knot Working with Owner-Marc and Captain Sean- I can’t say enough about these guys! We have done ocean charters in The Keys and Sarasota and Marc and Sean made this the best one ever! Our friends had never done a charter and I was so impressed with Marc and Sean helping them (and us) and their patience was wonderful! We have had some “salty” captains before who are a little rough around the edges and that can sour a trip…especially for us Michiganders who are not expert anglers. Marc and Sean enjoyed chatting with us and both have great personalities! Marc communicated very well with me and we caught plenty of fish! I absolutely recommend these guys- YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED! So much fun! We want to come back next Spring Break!!!! Thank you Marc and Sean- this was a highlight for our break and it’s because of your hard work!!!

Lane Snapper
Gray Triggerfish

10 Hour Trip Nearshore on October 15, 2026 • 2 adults

Another year in the books with Captain Marc. Small hiccup in the beginning, but as soon as we hit the water, we were on the fish. We were so busy catching, we didn’t have time to take pictures! As usual, great music, great conversation, great company, great fishin’! Can’t wait for next year!!!

Great trip with kids
3 Hour Trip – Fun Family Fishing on June 25, 2026 • 2 adults • 4 children

They asked what kind of trip we were looking for- catch a ton of fish for the kids or try and catch larger fish but not as many- we had a 3,4,5 and 7 year old and it was a big undertaking but the kids did great and they told us about the fish and helped us catch a lot at first and then tried catching larger fish towards the end. Definitely recommend them, thanks guys!

Reported catch:
Black Grouper
Lane Snapper
Vermilion Snapper

4 Hour Trip – Family Fast Action on June 25, 2026 • 6 adults

We wanted action and didn't care much about size. Just wanted to harvest enough fish for dinner. Everyone in group caught fish. We caught 7 or 8 kinds of fish and took home enough for dinner. Half day trip was about right for folks new to charter fishing. Crew was attentive, courteous, and knowledgeable. Would definitely book again.

Big time on a Big boat
Bay fishing on April 9, 2026 • 5 adults

We have been on several trips already this year and this boat was the best to accomodate 5 adults fishing at the same time. Love the fact there was a Capt and a First Mate (both very knowledgable) We got to do a little bit of everything on our in-shore trip. We fished flats, points, shore-line, docks, structures and bridges. I was also happy to have bait options, we fished live bait, cut bait and a multitude of artificals. Definetely recommend this trip!

Reported catch:
Mangrove Snapper
Spanish Mackerel
Speckled Trout

Running trips out of Destin aboard a 30' Grady-White 306 Bimini Center console and a 20 foot Bay Scout. The crew will demonstrate techniques such as bottom fishing, spinning, trolling, jigging, topwater, jig and spoon or something unique to the area. Marc fished for a little time professionally on the bass circuits of FLW and BASS early in 2000's. The only way to learn is to join them on the water.
