We had an absolute blast out in the water. Captain David was also very communicative in planning ahead of time when weather delays may have posed a problem. He was a great captain and showed us how to catch quality fish. Would definitely recommend going out with him.

Captain James took my 8 year old son and 10 year old daughter on a great trip. We started catching fish right away, and also spotted dolphins and a manatee. Great trip, and I'd definitely recommend it.
