Father and Son Vacation 2024
Half Day Trip – Nearshore (AM) on June 2, 20242 adults2 children
This trip was awesome! Captain Cody adapted to the windy weather and made a trip that was memorable for everyone involved! We caught like 7 different species of fish and my 6 yr. old son and 8 yr. old nephew had bait on the line at all times. We were impressed and I would recommend booking a trip with Cody to anyone! Very knowledgeable, friendly, and worked well with kids!

Half Day Trip – Backwater (AM) on August 12, 20245 adults
My father, father-in-law, my wife, and I went fishing together. It was the first time for the three of them to fish. The captain took us to several spots, and we caught fish at every one of them. We are grateful for the captain's expertise, and we'll definitely come back again if we have the chance.

Dad took us fishing
Half Day Trip – Backwater (AM) on June 7, 20234 adults
Took my 2 daughters and my 76 yo mother out with Captain Cody and he was awesome. The bite was on right away, with several nice red fish and a torpon. When the fishing tailed off we went after shark and landed a 6 footer and lost another after a good fight. Went back after the reds and hooked up a few more times. With 3 ladies on board all rookies they had a great time. Captain Cody knows his stuff.
