4 Hour Trip – Reef/Bay on November 5, 2026 • 4 adultsWe had an absolutely fantastic trip with Captain Bryan! Our goal was to catch enough fish to enjoy for lunch, and our catch far exceeded our expectations. We caught mangrove snapper along with several other species, making for an incredible day on the water. What made the trip even more special was the unexpected opportunity to have a state fish tagging researcher on board. We got to learn how fish tagging works, participate in the process, and gain a better understanding of the local marine environment. Between the great fishing, the experience, and everything we learned along the way, this was easily one of the best fishing trips we’ve ever had. We can’t recommend Captain Bryan enough!

8 Hour Trip – Offshore/Reef - 1:30 PM on July 27, 2026 • 2 adultsWhat an absolutely EPIC day on the water with Capt. Ben! Storms rolled through early and probably scared most people away, but Capt. Ben knew exactly what he was doing. He followed the sun, found the fish, and turned what started as a questionable weather day into one we’ll never forget. The result? 18 Mahi Mahi, every one of them a keeper, including a few massive bulls that had us grinning from ear to ear! Beyond putting us on fish, Capt. Ben is incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and just plain fun to spend the day with. He made everything feel effortless, whether you were an experienced angler or just there to enjoy the adventure. If you’re looking for a captain who works hard, knows these waters inside and out, and is committed to giving his clients an unforgettable experience, look no further. We couldn’t recommend Capt. Ben more highly and can’t wait to fish with him again!

4 Hour Trip – Reef/Bay - 1:30 PM on April 28, 2026 • 4 adults • 1 childWe had an absolutely incredible experience on this fishing charter, and a huge part of that was thanks to Brian. From the moment we stepped on board, he went above and beyond to make sure everyone in our group felt comfortable and included—especially my 6-year-old daughter and my 80-year-old parents. He was patient, engaging, and made sure my daughter was not only safe but also genuinely excited and involved the entire time. The highlights of the trip were unforgettable. We saw dolphins, manatees, tiger shark, stingrays, and so much more—it felt like a full wildlife tour on top of a fantastic fishing experience. Brian’s knowledge of the fish and the local ecosystem really stood out. He shared so many interesting insights throughout the trip, which made it both fun and educational. This fishing charter combined great fishing, amazing wildlife, and an overall incredible experience. We caught plenty of fish to feed the whole family at a local restaurant that Brian recommend. 10/10!
Virgie Rogers5.0VerifiedGreat fishing trip
4 Hour Trip – Reef/Bay on May 10, 2026 • 4 adultsWe had an amazing experience with Uncle Slam Fishing Charter! Captain Ben was fantastic — knowledgeable, friendly, and made the trip so much fun from start to finish. We caught lots of yellowtail snapper and trigger fish, which made for an exciting day on the water. One of the coolest parts of the trip was getting to see a huge sea turtle up close! It was such a memorable experience for our whole group. Highly recommend Captain Ben and Uncle Slam if you’re looking for a great fishing charter!
