Awesome trip with BEST CREW EVER!
4-Hour 'Fast Action' Family Trip 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!!!

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!

Amazing charter
2 hour Kids trip bay or nearshore on April 2, 2026 • 2 adults • 2 children
Captian Marc and his other crew mate were great. He knew we had kids and made the best time for them. The fish were not biting in the beginning but he made sure we didn’t leave until we caught one. They helped with baiting hooks for the kids and casting to make sure we were getting the most of our time, and were very fun and pleasant to be around. I give the whole experience a 10/10, will be returning!

The crew was great!
5hr Federal Reef on April 8, 2026 • 6 adults
Higher than usual winds were making for some pretty good waves. The crew made every effort to put us on fish, but the fish failed to participate. They even gave us a few extra minutes just tying to make it happen for us. Thank you for your effort and for a good time! If you are booking with AM temperatures under 80 I recommend a sweatshirt or a rain jacket as the first part of trip was a little wet and got a little chilly.
