Great day with Captain Terry. We started later in the morning to let the wind and seas calm down and they did.  After about 41/2 hrs of intense fishing with the captain bating hooks and giving us pointers,
My brother in law and I caught over 50 fish of 11 different species.
Terry was fun and enthusiastic the whole day ad answered all my questions about fishing the area.
We definitely would big with him again and recommend him to anyone we know.

We fished with Captain Terry and had a great day of fish catching, laughing, learning and fun adventure. Because of the weather and wind, we left the dock at Placida equipped to fish the inland waters or run out into the gulf. With 3-5 ft waves, the 24 ft boat handled the gulf chop with ease and we made it out to 8 or 9 miles offshore, stopping at several key secret spots that Captain Terry had in his GPS. Drop-offs and wrecks, hard bottoms, sand. He explained why too. We caught fish at every stop! Heart throbbing bites, drag-screaming runs. We landed about 60 fish in our 3-hour lines-in-the-water stint from 1230-330 in the afternoon (5 hrs total trip), catching 6 different species of fish including gag grouper, red grouper, triggerfish, lane snapper, key west grunts, tom-toms. We lost a lot too! We left with a bucket for the table, a nice bag of white fillets, all cleaned by Captain Terry and ready for the kitchen pan. We learned about the gear, rods, reels, lines, weights, leaders, hooks and differences between them all, and use of baits and lures. These included squid, cut bait, shrimp, frozen minnows and other secret stuff he had. Incredible trip. Great value, great fun. We highly recommend Captain Terry.

Although the bite was slow early Capt Terry was very persistent - trying different locations and approaches to get fish in the boat.  He even extended the charter to try one more spot and we ended up with nearly 2 dozen nice eating fish.  Not huge but sooo fun to catch.  The bonus was the friendly dolphin who came up to say hello!

My brother and I fished a half day with Captain Terry in the bay. We had an absolute blast. Terry knows what’s he’s doing and will try his best to put you on some fish. That’s what we wanted to do and that’s what he did. It felt like we were fishing with one of our buddies back home. I think we ended up catching 5 or 6 different species of fish in a half day trip and we actually stayed out a little longer than we were supposed to. I’d go back with him anytime and hope to the next time I’m down! Thanks again Terry!

Awesome day with Captain Terry our in the gulf today! Fish were bitting, weather was beautiful, and Captain Terry was the best. I took my husband for his birthday as a surprise. I would do it again in a heartbeat! Captain Terry was very helpful, friendly, funny, fun to be with, and informative all the fish we caught. We will definitely be going again!! And will be recommending him to all friends and family who live here or who are visiting! Thanks for a wonderful day Captain Terry! FISH ON!!
