Beautiful morning trip
5/5
Had an absolute blast! My fiancé and I went out on a 3 hour inshore trip and had so much fun. We hit a couple different spots and caught a good amount of fish. Ended the day with a great black drum which was perfect! The captain was super fun to hang around and was very personable and easy to get to know. Knew a ton about the area and was a great time to be around. I would highly recommend to anyone wanting to go out and have some fun fishing!

Great Day fishing with Captain Ken!
5/5
We had a great time fishing with Captain Ken today. Got to catch some big Black Drum and a Mangrove Snapper which tasted delicious. Captain Ken was ready to go with all the bait and equipment needed for a day on the water. He took us to a number of places to fish and was very knowledgeable about the various types of fish and taught us the best fishing techniques to use. We would recommend him to anyone looking for a great day of fishing.
