    Half Day Fishing Trip July 4th Weekend

    Halvdagstur • 3 voksne

    Had a very delightful day on a very calm sea, with no breeze, no fish but excellent conversation. Captain Al and his boat mate Pat gave their all trying different locations and techniques (Trolling and bottom fishing) in hopes of finding the fish that actually wanted to bite! At each location he could see fish on his Fish Finder but we couldn't entice any to take the bait. In one instance I saw 2 good size Cobia floating under a patch of seaweed and they just sat there watching the boat pass pack and forth. Crazy Fish!!! I can say that every boat in the area seemed to be having the same lack of success and saw no action on any line in the water. I highly recommended Captain Al's boat for your next charter trip, especially if you are looking for a laid back crew on a sturdy boat with a cabin to escape the sun. They are accommodating to every type of fishing experience, even if you've never held a rod in your hand! Always remember.....ANY DAY ON THE WATER IS A GOOD DAY!

    Day on the water

    7 Timers Tur • 4 voksne

    Captain Al and deckhand Jeff were super nice and did everything they could to make the day a great experience. It was a bit rough in the morning and the fish did not cooperate as much as we hoped, but that’s fishing. It’s always a fun experience with the family, the weather ended up being fantastic and CAPT Al and Jeff ensured we enjoyed ourselves. I recommend and I will go back in the future.

    Half Day with Captain Al

    Halvdagstur • 2 voksne

    By far the friendliest and most attentive Captain I've had the pleasure of fishing with. Made sure we had everything we needed and was constantly asking if he could do anything for us. 10 out of 10 stars!!!

    First timers full day deep sea fishing

    7 Timers Tur • 6 voksne

    Overall great price and experience even though we didn't catch any fish to come home with (apparently it's not great fishing season in April). Comfortable boat with all the amenities we needed like a restroom and couch. Will come back again in the summer time when it's apparently peak season. Thanks again!

    Indberettet fangst:
    Rød snapper
    Pletsnapper

    Although the larger "keepers" were further out yesterday, we still managed to catch our share of snappers and we also gave a grouper a good run for his money until he snapped the line. In either case, it was great taking your group out to have a fun filled day on the water. Y'all are welcome back on the "Carolyn Jane" anytime and please enjoy the attached photos that I took during your trip yesterday... Thanks again for your business and the tip.

    Full day With Captain Al

    7 Timers Tur • 4 voksne

    The morning started off with a rush, scrambling to get out past the morning showers, and it was worth every minute with the experienced Captain Al. He got us right into the fish we were after first thing in the morning and kept us catching em and stacking em up ALL DAY LONG. We completely tagged out two of the three people when we ran out of room in the ice chest. Captain Al and Deckhand Pat were knowledgable, friendly, patient, caring, and went out of their way to keep everyone comfortable and having fun even between the action. This was a once in a lifetime experience we had today, quality family time that was nothing but smiles, laughter, and good times all around. Everyone had a blast catching fish, and we even witnessed a huge pod of dolphins birthing a calf while we rested for lunch which was another amazing experience about this trip. We highly recommend this charter and when we get the opportunity to go again, we will be booking with these guys. DON'T PICK ANYONE ELSE, THESE ARE THE GUYS YOU WANT

    Hi William, It was great taking you and your family offshore fishing yesterday. It was non-stop catching and FUN!. The video we took of the dolphin giving birth was exceptional and probably a once in a lifetime experience! Just keep me in mind after you post it on Youtube and make a few million...lol, Thanks again, Capt. Al

    Capt AL and the deck hand were very knowledgeable and informative. Although we have experience in the Gulf, I would recommend this trip to anyone without experience. The crew is that helpful. Weather was rough. That put a hamper on the trip. But we all had a great time.

    Captain Al and deckhand for the day Mo gave us a great experience out in the reef seeking out Red Snapper and Kings! Though we didn’t catch many keepers, we certainly reeled in fish when others around us didn’t appear to be doing so and got to see dolphins, as well as some Kings chasing ribbon fish and shooting outta the water like rockets! The guys created a great experience accommodating our two young boys and the Boat is large enough we had plenty of space even while social distancing. God trip, fun crew! More fish will be caught next trip! Thanks Captain Al!
