Did a two father / two son fishing trip with two early-teen boys, none of us had saltwater fished before.  Booking was easy and they confirmed the trip within an hour.  Easy to find and the boat was ready right on time. Ryan was great - fun and easy going guy who knew a ton about the area and the fish.  Helped a lot with two boys and made them have an absolute blast.  Caught a ton of snapper, a cobia and even a little shark.  Had us back on the dock with a few bags of fish to make dinner with.  Would really recommend these guys, great attitude, fun, great equipment.  Really do a nice job.

Fantastic day of fishing with Captan Justin on the Good Times. Very first spot the fish were biting and Amelia our Nine year old caught the first Jack. We were catching jacks and mangrove snapper by the dozen. We threw back way more than we kept. After lunch on a private island beach we headed to reef territory for groupers and caught several brown and red groupers but they weren’t keeper size. Last spot we trolled for a bit and my Wife landed the biggest fish she’s ever caught, a massive barracuda. Fantastic trip and our Captain made everything extra fun. After the trip he filleted up the fish and we had a delicious mangrove snapper dinner prepared with our fresh catch at the Mellow Ventures cafe. If you need a family friendly adventure you can’t ask for better.

Captain Ryan was fantastic and kept us laughing the whole trip! He found us a great spot and within a couple hours we caught our snapper limit. I wasn’t as interested in baiting the hook and casting so Captain Ryan flawlessly took care of that for me each time, where he let my boyfriend bait and cast on his own accord. It worked out perfectly, and the boat had everything we needed! We also got to see a beautiful sunset on our way back (although it did get slightly chilly so I would bring a jacket). 5+ stars for Captain Ryan for sure!

It was a chilly morning, but a great day of fishing!  Ryan even had a couple of jackets that we used in the earlier part of the morning. Caught fish as soon as we put lines in the water!  I ask a lot of questions and Ryan was happy to answer all of them. We returned to the doc without about ten nice yellow jacks and snappers. Ryan filleted them and Mellow Ventures cooked up some fish tacos for us. We were a little worried about the cool weather but this turned out to be an amazing day in the water!!
