Unforgettable Fishing Trip with a Dedicated Captain!
5/5
We took our two boys (15 and 13) on a fishing charter and had an amazing experience. Our captain was incredibly knowledgeable and worked tirelessly to make sure the boys had a great time and got to reel in some fish. He was patient, helpful, and made the whole trip memorable. Highly recommend!

6 hour offshore trip amazing
5/5
My family wanted to get offshore to catch something big. Captain Steel took us right to a great spot to catch and fight some big Jacks , and plenty of Barracuda which was one of the fish on my family's bucket list. Captain was fun and great and played great tunes as well. Highly recommend this charter

Awesome day fishing!
5/5
We had an awesome day fishing. Captain put us on the fish quick. We were hooked up on big Amber jacks in less than 5 minutes of stopping the boat and then when we went to the second spot we had a triple on in less than five minutes. Captain Steele really knows what he is doing and he is very professional. I have taken many charters and this was at the top of the list I will definitely use him again!
