Great time on the water! Highly recommend Captain Justin and Family Time Fishing. They were ready to fish when we arrived and got us fishing in short order. Everyone caught two or more fish while the other boats were coming up empty. Looking forward to trying again with Family Time in the future!
Thank you sir for your review and your business we greatly appreciate it.
Justin and Talon were great! Boat was well equipped and they put us on the fish. We had a great time and would most certainly recommend them to anyone.
Thank you for choosing Family Time Fishing Charters and we look forward to seeing you again.
My sons and I did the full day (8h) and had a great time. We caught loads of fish including near limit (8, 9 is limit) of King Mackerel. Captain and first mate were excellent. Knew where the fish were, kind, and professional. Boat is great with nice indoor cabin and bathroom. Highly recommend and will be back.
Thank you for your review and choosing Family Time Fishing Charters. We appreciate your business.
Very well kept, clean, large boat with inside cabin perfect for those with families who want to get out of the sun or stay warmer when chilly. Captain and mate very friendly and put us on some nice bonita, spanish and blues. Fun day and would use them again for sure when we're in the area.
