Playtime Sportfishing 

Capt Jimmy was great before and during our trip. He called the night before to ask what we wanted to target, gave us info on the day and asked if we had any questions. Day of, he met us on time with his 1st mate John. We had a quick safety overview and were off. 15 minutes and we were on the ocean with lines going out. Before all the lines were set we had 2 fish on! We trolled for about 2 hrs with less than a few minutes between fish. We caught 6 large Bonita and 4 nice Black fin Tuna. As we were going to switch to bottom fishing for snapper, we spotted a shark about 50 yards off the boat. Without missing a beat, capt Jimmy jumped down and setup a shark rig while mate John reeled in our trolling lines. 5 minutes later, we were hooked up on a 8+ ft hammerhead! After a 30 min fight, we had it boat side. Got some great pics and we released it. A few bottom drops wrapped up our trip with 2 snapper! We headed back in where the tuna and snapper were filleted up for us and they pointed us to a nearby restaurant that we went to and had our catch cooked up for a great meal! If you want a great trip with a capt and crew that know what they are doing, look no further! 10 out of 10 we will be back again!

We had a great experience with this fishing charter despite some very rough seas. We initially attempted to head out into the ocean, but due to the conditions, we had to turn around. The captain and deckhand were incredibly accommodating and quickly adjusted our trip, setting us up in the canal where the waters were much calmer—perfect for our family. We were especially grateful for how kind and attentive they were with our two daughters. They truly made the best out of unpredictable Florida weather and ensured we still had an enjoyable and memorable experience. I would absolutely recommend this charter to anyone looking for a family-friendly fishing trip. Their flexibility, professionalism, and positive attitude made all the difference!

Morning started out great Captain James accommodated my son and I by meeting us an hr early. Then he gave us the option to buy live bait or use spinners. We took him up on the live bait, money well spent. Then his mate went over safety of the boat. She was very helpful, friendly and drives the boat very well. We had very good luck my son caught a kingfish biggest fish he has ever caught due to captains experience and ability to know the area. After he pulled that it in I was lucky enough to pull in a 51” Barracuda which was the biggest fish I have ever caught. This was the best charter my son and I have ever been on. Nothing is guaranteed but we were blessed that day. Captain gave us the option to go for smaller fish and catch more but my son wanted to risk and try for another big one. We overall have had a great time and will deff be looking to rebook with Captain James when back in the area. TY Captain and First Mate. Highly recommend!!!

We had so much fun with Captain Jimmy and John! We went all over, caught 13 fish and almost landed a Sail Fish. They had lots of good ideas to find the fish and help us land them. The hunt and chase was the best part. And they gave the best recommendation of where to take them to cook them after! My whole family was so excited about the trip and will have great memories to share!

My wife, our two boys, and I had an unforgettable day on the water. We landed a trophy Mahi along with several blackfin tuna, and the excitement on the kids’ faces made the whole trip worth it. The crew Jen and Jimmy were phenomenal from start to finish. They were patient, knowledgeable, and made the entire experience fun and stress‑free for all of us. Whether you’re brand new to fishing or have years of experience, I’d highly recommend this trip. It was truly amazing, and we’ll be talking about it for a long time.
