Oleksandr ZolotarovRepeat angler5.0VerifiedNewAmazing Trip with Captain Mark!
14 Hour Trip – Trophy Catfish on September 12, 2026 • 4 adultsWe had an awesome fishing trip with Mark! He was professional, friendly, knowledgeable, and really knew where to find the big fish. We ended up catching some big catfish, which made the trip unforgettable! Mark worked hard the entire time to keep us on the fish and made sure everyone was having a great time. Great equipment, great atmosphere, and an amazing experience from start to finish. If you’re looking to catch some serious catfish and have a fun day on the water, Mark is your guy! We’ll definitely book with him again. Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

8 Hour Trip – Trophy Catfish on June 27, 2026 • 2 adultsWe had the best experience. He was a pleasure to fish with. His excitement every time the pole would bend over with a catfish on it is unmatched by any other. Bring the family and sit back and catch a trophy fish. Will be booking again.

4 Hour Trip – Multi-Species (AM) on May 1, 2026 • 2 adults • 1 childMy 9 year old son had a ball. Caught drum, catfish and bass. We lost count. Marc was very helpful and taught my kid some tricks along the way. Knew where to go and what to look for. Highly recommend. Baby rod for the win.

April fishing trip
4 Hour Trip – Multi-Species (AM) on April 1, 2026 • 2 adultsI was very impressed with Captain Marc. I have been on other charters and the captain did almost everything and didn't explain what he was doing, all I did was reel in the fish once they were hooked. Captain Marc explained what he was doing and took the time to teach my grandson how to do it. He learned a lot about catfishing. It's all he has talked since the trip. We had a great experience.
Ashley Henry5.0VerifiedGreat day of catching fish!

4 Hour Trip – Multi-Species (AM) on March 30, 2026 • 5 adultsWe had a great time with Marc. He ensured we caught a lot of fish as we told him our dinner depended on it! He took a great deal of interest in our trip & was really good with my 15yo son (the reason we booked the trip). Thank you Marc, keep on fishing!
