I sent four of my grandchildren on an adventure fishing trip, and they all had an amazing time! They were so excited about the fish they caught and couldn’t stop talking about the experience. Hank was incredibly kind, patient, and helpful, making sure everyone had a great time. The smiles in all of the photos say it all—they had a blast! This was an unforgettable experience, and they all said they would absolutely do it again. Thank you, Hank, for making such wonderful memories for my grandchildren.

thanks so much, they were great!
Hank was very knowledgeable and made sure we didn't waste time in areas if the fish stopped biting. We caught a wide variety of fish. Hank filleted our catch and advised us on how to cook it. Supper was great that night. Thank You Hank for all your hard work. Highly Recommend this trip.

Thanks so much

We had a great time with Captain Hank and first mate Logan. We were on the boat and traveling to the first reef (6-7 miles offshore) within minutes of pulling into the parking lot. Captain Hank had 10 or more go-to spots and we caught fish at most of them. The Captain apologized for the slow bite but we had fun and caught plenty of fish...probably 40-50 fish in the four hour trip. We had great conversations about our families, football, things to do in the area, etc. and had some good music during the trip. Captain Hank and Logan processed a bunch of fish for us to take and it was enough for several meals. My family really enjoyed our time with Hank and we would strongly recommend him for anyone wanting to catch fish and have a great time.

thanks so much

Luckily we found Hank to be our captain for this unforgettable ocean excursion. He is very knowledgable and familiar with the spots both inshore and offshore. We caught around 60 fish in a 6hr trip and released the majority of it and only took several great catches back for christmas dinner. We also hook two sharks during the trip however got our lines broke during the fight, one of them might be 100lb+, which I fought it with my daiwa baitcasting reel and bfs ultra light rod. It was definitely a great time and will for sure go back to Hank next time. Oh, by the way, even though I sounded like an AI chatbot during the fight with shark, mubbling between I guess it’s a shark and It’s definitely a shark, this review is wrote 100% from a robust human writer, not a random AI generated review with high temperature. Most importantly, don’t treat the frog fish like your mother in law, it is the best fish ever I tried with silky texture meat, definitely worth a try!

thanks so much for fishing with me and for the great review!

I went on my first private charter in St Pete with Hank and what a great experience i had. To start the boat was spotless, the fishing rods and equipment was top notch. Hank gave me some options on what to target and suggested that we head straight out to a few of his favorite reefs. This would be our best bet for good results. Trust me when a captain gives a suggestion for best results, listen and i am glad i did. We caught over 50 key west snappers , 2 spanish mackerel, one triple tail and a real nice 15 pound gag grouper. We also got broken off 4 times on big fish. Oh in case i didn't mention earlier i went out solo. Thats what happens some time you win and some times the fish get away. When i come back to the area i will definitely book him again. Thank you for a great day on the water.

Thanks Steve
