4 Hour Trip on April 8, 2026

Booked a 4-hour fishing trip with Captain Peter and had an awesome time. He was very helpful, knowledgeable, and made the whole trip enjoyable from start to finish. We caught several snook and redfish, and he worked hard to keep us on fish the entire trip. Great experience overall and I’d definitely book with him again. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a fun and successful day on the water.

6 Hour Tarpon Trip on May 6, 2026

I have taken many charters with captain Peter, and it’s always a blast. Made everything very easy. Tied all lines, set you up with bait, and even casted us in the good spots! My most recent one was a 6hr tarpon trip, and it didn’t disappoint. Caught my very first big tarpon! I highly recommend fishing with captain Peter.
