Great trip, awesome Captain, caught tons of fish
4 Hour Trip – Reef Fishing on November 26, 20255 adults

Captain Josh was awesome, super friendly and very accommodating. We had a young teen on board too, and Josh was very good with him, keeping his interest high and taught him a lot. He knew the waters, where to fish, and gave us plenty of tips on how to fish with the specific targets we were after. Welcomed us aboard, took care of everything, as well as cleaning and fileting our catch. Would definitely recommend to anyone in the area looking for a well spent half day fishing. Thanks!

8 Hour Trip – Reef Fishing on December 23, 20253 adults

Capt Josh and Gavin gave us a great day on the water. Moved us around the reef to keep us on the action and out of the waves, always had the rods ready to go, and provided us with a fun filled day and lots of fish. Highly recommend.

Take the trip!
10 Hour Trip – Swordfishing on June 29, 20232 adults1 child

Yes, private charters are more expensive but so worth it. A full day on the water spending time with your friends and family, then catching a swordfish to boot can’t be beat. Josh had a plan, knew what he wanted, and executed. We realize we were on a mission to catch a specific species in a huge ocean, and we are thankful it worked out. Josh was chill which kept the whole atmosphere calm and relaxing. He was so great with my son who asked no less than a million questions. Definitely going to be a repeat customer.
