Inshore 4 Hour Shark Fishing (Am)

Went above and beyond!

VERIFIED

We bought this as a birthday gift to my son. He wanted a sports fish trip to mark off his bucket list. We booked a 7AM 4hr trip and it was still a squelching hot day. We got a handful of spanish mackerel that they cleaned and took care of for us. We didn't get anything and was just getting frustrated, we had 2 hrs with just nothing. He kept us out longer to make sure we got something good. My son got to bring in a big Red Drum. They said it was about a 70 year old fish that weighed over 60lbs. My son was super happy with the ending. We were definitely appreciative of the Captain and his mate. They took good care of us, its a nice boat and we were comfortable even in the searing heat. Great experience!

Thank you Eric for the kind review… It was definitely a hot day today with zero breeze at all! We appreciate you guys fishing with us and I wanted more than anything to get a big fish for your son for his birthday. Thank God we were able to get one there near the end. Fishing is very unpredictable. I have been a captain for 16 years & mated on other boats for years before becoming a captain...I also was a charter boat customer for many years & have done hundreds of deep sea offshore 12 hour trips that cost 5x what a 4 hour inshore trip costs & can't tell you how many times we caught nothing all day long! But the few times where we had great days is what keeps you coming back to try again! I'm sorry it was slow for yall for a while today & glad it ended with a big fish but many of the other charter boats out there today never had a chance to get to that school of big fish before they were gone again. It could have easily been us that didn't get there in time. I'm thankful anytime we are lucky enough to be the one catching. There is definitely no guarantees in fishing. Thanks again.

8 HR – Middle Grounds Wreck Fishing

True Professionals

VERIFIED

With the recent weather and tough conditions that the tropical storm brought in, Captain Scott and first mate Jeffrey still found a way to deliver and provide the best trip possible for my crew and I. Scott was very communicative leading up to the trip and provided updates and insights on what to expect condition wise. Even with the tough conditions, Scott and Jeffrey still got us on some nice Cobia and mackerel and were able to salvage what they could on an overall great trip with the hand we were dealt. These guys are top notch professionals and we will definitely look to book with them again. Thanks again Scott and Jeffrey.

I really appreciate the kind review Hunter. Thank you for choosing us to fish with. Wish we could have got you guys out a little further and targeted the mahi that I know you were hoping for but I'm glad we were able to find a couple of big fish for you. Would enjoy the chance to fish with you guys again.

6 Hour Inshore - Cobia / Red Drum

Excellent !!!!!!!

VERIFIED

Captain Scott and 1st Mate Jeffrey started out catching fish just out of port, when things slowed, we moved 5 miles and we were on the fish again. Once we caught enough to take home we went out a bit deeper and got on to a school of Red Drum. The Captain worked the boat to place us in the best situation possible to catch fish, and his 1st Mate worked the baits and rods. Had a lot of fun, definitely going back for more. Thank you

Scott & Jeffery were both great! Between communicating prior to the trip with reminder and even alerting the change in weather the day before it was great 10/10 will recommend! Although the weather wasn’t the best the trip was still memorable and fun to say the least!

Thank you Bri for the more than kind review. I am VERY sorry the weather turned out so horrible on your trip day. Unfortunately the weather plays a large part in our business & we have to try to be weather men as well as captain / fishfinder / entertainer...being weather man is the hardest part by far. Thank you for being so kind & understanding of the situation the weather put us in. I truly appreciate you guys choosing us & would love to have a second chance someday!

Great day with a great crew!

We had a blast out there! Captain worked hard the whole time getting us on fish and Connor did a fantastic job running the show on the back deck. We got on big reds and a big haul of Spanish. Thanks again for a great time on the water!
