We went on a half day inshore trip with Captain Bill on 6-2 (Corey & Dan). Didn’t land any fish, but hooked two and they spit hooks before we got them in the boat. Even with not landing any fish, I would definitely recommend this charter. Captain Bill has a great, very clean boat and knows his stuff. I am a lake/river bass fisherman and he taught me the ways of ocean fishing. Throughout the trip he would point out interesting point of interests and was a great guide!

Captain Bill’s commentary during the trip is worth the cost itself!! He is very personable and makes the trip great. He will answer any question you may have about the boat, waterways and fishing in this area.

Captain Bill put us on every spot he knew but as luck would have it the fish we not very cooperative today. That was ok with us as the journey was great. Captain Bill is one of a kind, several other Captains don’t have the same mindset. If you want a few great hours on the water fishing, look no further.

If you want a great boat and great Captain for your adventures, don’t go any further, book Captain Bill. Did I mention that there is a 300 sitting in the aft of his boat?! It kicks some a**!!!!! You will not be disappointed!!

We can’t wait until we have a return visit and will book Captain Bill without hesitation!!! Please do the same.

Thank you, Captain Bill, for a great trip and great memories!!!!

I have been deep sea fishing and have never caught fish like I did this trip! Captain Bill very knowledgeable on location of fish, type of fish biting, and kept us busy reeling in fish for the whole trip! We caught two Barracudas that captain Bill filet for us and fed us for a week! Amazing Experience!

Booked Captain Bill less than 24 hours before the trip and he agreed to take us out! He contacted us to see if we were flexible with times because he wanted to plan our trip around the tides. We had two 15-year-old boys fairly new to fishing who just wanted catch some fish. Capt Bill is a wealth of local knowledge and was great with teaching the boys some fishing techniques. We caught flounder, blue, red, trout, and a couple of crabs. After he cleaned them we took his advice and took the filets to Singleton’s nearby where they fried and grilled our fresh catch for around $2.50/lb! The boat was comfortable (and has a bathroom!) and we had a great day in the water! It was the perfect charter for our young fishermen!

Every trip I have done with Capt. Bill so far has been inshore, always came home with fish for dinner and my dad caught a 38” red on his last trip with us, fish of a lifetime! When my dad visits from NY we fish with Capt. Bill, not even a second thought! I trust Capt. Bill without question and when he said “Mike we should go offshore tomorrow instead of inshore” I was all in. What a day we had, the action was non-stop from the first drop to the last! I caught four new species of fish with the most thrilling one being a Cobia! Capt. Bill keeps an immaculate boat, his knowledge is extensive, he puts you on the fish and he is a heck of a nice guy! I sent pics from the trip to all my buddies and said “Now you know why you have to come fishing with me in JAX on Hooker Charters!”. I’m a customer for life and can’t wait to go again!

My wife and I went down for our honeymoon and we really wanted to try off shore fishing for the first time.  Weather didn’t let it happen the first day but captain Bill put took us inshore instead and put us right on flounder, Mangrove snapper, pinfish, Jack, and more. 3 days later the weather was cooperating and he took us off shore and caught our limit of triggerfish, which is some of the best tasting fish we have ever had. Caught amber jack, trigger, sea bass, vermillion snapper, red snapper (can’t keep it,  but amazing time bringing them in) ringtail porgy, grunts, had a shot at a barracuda.  We saw jellyfish,  dolphins,  sea turtles, ramora, even had a shark on the line at one point.
  Both trips were everything we could have asked for.  Wound up with 33 keepers, caught well over 200 fish. The line was hitting fish before the bait even made it to the bottom!  Was the highlight of our trip and captain Bill was the reason that the trip was so successful.  Everything he said we were looking for we found, and right where he said it would be.  We are already trying to plan our next trip out!  Would highly recommend both of these trips as they are completely different experiences and both worth every penny!!
