We were a couple of weeks early from a water temperature perspective for catching some of the larger species, but the captain knew we were looking to catch and release for fun, so he put us in perfect position to have constant action all day with the right locations, bait and setup. Communication in advance is important so you know what will likely be running during your trip in March because of the changeover in water temperature.

Bring a jacket in case it's chilly. Temperatures were in the high 50's, low 60's, and "cold" when moving between fishing spots across the bay. Luckily, our Captain Brian had extra jackets to share with us and kept us warm.

We had a great fishing trip. Cpt. Tony really knew the fish in the area and where and when to find them. He was helpful to the novice. The day was windy but he handles the boat beautifully; making sure everyone was safe and comfortable.

I think the captain is just as excited when you catch a fish. He is so into fishing which made it even more fun for all of us. We definitely would recommend him to everyone we know. We even saw pink spoonbills and manatees which were an added bonus.

Had a great time with the entire family on a half day morning trip that was the high point of our vacation. Captain David was great and took us to a couple of good locations where the fish were biting. The bait and rods provided were great, and Captain David kept the kids entertained and catching fish all AM.

Our daughter and her friends were home for spring break from college and wanted to go fishing. We booked Wade online. Everything was seamless. He sent all of the info we needed and followed up with a phone call prior to our fishing trip. Wade had a fully outfitted boat. Our party of 6 had him running ragged keeping our rods baited and the fish off our hooks! We caught one fish after another. It was truly a beautiful day. The girls had a blast. We came home and cooked up the fish. Delicious
