Good fishing trip
Half Day Trip (AM) on June 22, 2025
Went fishing with Captain Charlton and Kelsey for morning charter. Good communication from staff prior to trip. We messaged charter that we wanted to do deep sea fishing and they were prepared. Had good action first few hours and ended up with 3 tuna, 1 mahi-mahi and 1 barracuda. The Captain covered lots of water to get us on the fish. Kelsey was very helpful teaching my son how to properly land his catch. Overall was a great trip. Would recommend.

Great Paradise Island Fishing Experience!
Half Day Trip (AM) on November 3, 2024
My wife and I booked a fishing trip for us and our 9 & 12yo sons. From an easy pickup to drop off at the Margaritaville dock, the team was great! Within 30-40 minutes we had four fish, all different species. Captain and first mate figured out fishing patterns quickly and it helped us have a great experience. Ended up with a snapper they filleted for us and Margaritaville cooked it up for us to enjoy within minutes of stepping off the boat. Also, we ended up getting our largest Barracuda mounted and can’t wait for it to arrive back home. Would definitely book again and recommend you do too!

WHAT A TRIP!
Half Day Trip (PM) on October 24, 2024
Our Trip was great from start to finish. We requested beers on ice the day before and they were there and ready when we boarded the boat. We did a 4hr morning trip and were picked up promptly at 7:30, within 15 minutes of leaving the dock, BANG! Wahoo in the boat! 5 minutes later, 2 barracuda in the boat. The first 2 hours were non stop Barracuda (that was the bite in late October) we had multiple double headers during that time. Captain and mate worked tirelessly, lines were ALWAYS in the water. After maybe a 45 minute LULL ( captain took us elsewhere to try and get us on different fish) we were back on the Cuda. The fish were non stop, Captain and mate were extremely friendly, knew where the fish were, and the consummate professionals! All said and done, 18 fish in 4hrs! I recommend this crew to EVERYONE, they will put you on the fish and they enjoy doing it!!

Half Day Trip (AM) on April 14, 2025
My family and I had an awesome trip on Chubasco VI this past week. We're a fishing family but my kids are young (13 & 11) so I elected to not go offshore. Within a few minutes of getting to the fishing grounds we had our first fish on. We had nearly non-stop action for the next few hours; landing a pile of barracuda, 3 and a half yellow snapper, and a spanish mackerel!

Captain and mate (Gussy) busted their butts to get on fish. Ran into a school of blackfin tuna and hit the jackpot. We’re all going to be sore tomorrow (Good kind of sore). Will definitely recommend this trip on this boat.
