Great day of fishing

Captain Gabriel and his crew are amazing, very knowledgeable and experienced. They worked hard to put us on fish and we even hooked onto a huge amberjack a few miles offshore! A great day of fishing and definitely booking with them again for my next charter!

8 hours with Captain J - Wonderful Experience
5/5
We had an amazing day fishing with Jay! We caught amberjack, Spanish mackerel, flounder, black seabass, etc. Jay is very knowledgeable and an experienced guide and captain. He is super friendly and made the trip such a great experience. Please note: the boat has no restroom facility BUT that won’t stop us from booking again in the future. We look forward to fishing with Jay again soon!

10/10 for inshore fishing
5/5
NO boring trolling here!!! If you wanna do some inshore fishing (some real fishing) this is your guy. It was just me and my 5yo son this trip. Captain Drew took care of him allowing me to fish worry free the whole day (if you’ve ever fished with young kids then you know how big that is).

Half day trip with Leverdrag
5/5
What a great and fun experience, it was my first time out on a boat and both mine and my girlfriends first time on open ocean. Joe was such a nice and knowledgeable captain who helped us catch about 10-15 Spanish mackerel definitely worth every penny spent. would very much like to try out his full day trip based off how fun and relaxing his half day went. Can’t say enough about how much i recommend Joe and his charter experience.
