We had 4 adults and 2 kids on this charter and it was the best experience. JJ (1st mate) was amazing! He took the time to answer and explain anything we asked about. We really wanted to learn about offshore fishing and JJ was so friendly and informative with all our questions. Captain Chad definitely got us on the fish which was a great experience for all, everyone got to reel in so many fish and we had 5 keepers.

I have to start off by saying Cartian Chad and First Mate JJ are awesome. Them guys are super cool and made my son’s birthday trip amazing. We felt like if we knew these guys forever. Next I have to say I’ve been on quite a few charters and at different locations around Florida and this was definitely the best one. I told Captian Chad I wanted to put my son and his friends on some big fish and he delivered. Everyone had a blast and this will definitely be our go to charter from now on. Thank... Mehr

The captain knew where to go and JJ knew what to do to catch fish. We even hooked up with a huge hammerhead at the end. What a trip! This was my first time on a charter boat like this. It was a bucket list item and I’m glad I went with Smoking Fish!!!  My guests had an awesome time too!!!

What an incredible day on the water! This was our kids very first offshore fishing trip, and it exceeded every expectation. Captain Chad and First Mate JJ were absolutely fantastic. The fishing was unbelievable- we caught wahoo, sailfish, kingfish, mahi, and snapper. The action seemed nonstop. This will be a family memory we will talk about for years to come. We cant wait to book again with Captain Chad and JJ.
