10/10 star rating from our crew for the "catch and release" fishing adventure with Captain Sean. From first point of contact, Captain Sean made us feel welcome and cared for. For the kiddo's (12 and 13 years old) "it was da best" they both caught fish, learned how to live bait with wee shrimp, cast and catch. Dad and Grandad also learned a lot about fishing, tides and Savannah marshes, along with history, and great stories. The rest of the family has now put it at the top of their list for Savannah "must do" experiences. Thank you Captain Sean.

Mahalo May! Come back soon!

Captain Sean is amazing! He put together a steller morning fishing plan for out 6 to 9 am charter. Despite odd weather front Sean took us to experience cathing beautiful solid trout around dock lights. Then a run to catch numerous redfish including one in 20 inch range.We caught and released numerous beautiful fish. Captain Sean is excellent,affordable, and you see his pasion for teaching care of fisheries and the environment! Book with him for day of great memories! Was such a fun day!

Thanks again Rob! It's always a pleasure having you on the boat! See you next time!
What a GREAT fishing trip we had with Captain Sean! While the water was around 90-92 degrees we still hooked on 23 fish on our morning run! (Red drum, trout, whiting, and a croaker) Capt Sean was so knowledgeable about the wildlife both in the water and above the water! We saw dolphins, mullet, blue crabs, gar, and many types of birds throughout the time! As far as the fishing and basics go, he made us feel very welcomed and taught us many tips and tricks that we never thought of before. If you're looking for a good time out in the water, I would highly highly recommend Sean! We will hopefully be back in October/November 🎣

That was a morning I won't forget Miguel! Thank you so much for the wonderful review! Please come back soon!
My 7 year old has always wanted to go salt water fishing. We live about 8 hours away from Georgia so we didn’t particularly want to keep the fish. He did but we had a weekend filled with exploring Savannah. We book on the Panga Express. The captain was perfect! He was knowledgeable and explained and educated my son. When my son caught a fish the captain made sure to make a big deal about it! We caught several fish. Only complaint was we booked a 2 hour excursion we wished we had booked longer! My family and son will definitely be back soon. Thank you captain Sean for an amazing experience!

Thank you so very much Kaya. It was a pleasure having your family on the boat and I had SO much fun watching your talented son reel them in one after the next. He's on his way to being a pro!
My wife and I did a 3 hour trip with Captain Sean. We had a great trip start to finish. Sean was very communicative and flexible on start time to avoid some bad weather. The marina is easy to find, and a great departure point. Captain Sean had us fishing quickly after launch and was great in showing us how to read the water and find fish, as well as how to effectively fish the water. Sean is super knowledgeable and happy to answer questions. A trip with Captain Sean is a great choice for anglers of all experience levels, and he is genuinely fun to fish with. Highly recommended.

Thank you so much for your kind words Charles! See you next time!
