Best Life Charters 

My teenage kids, my parents, and I had an amazing time fishing with Captain James! The boat was spotless, well-maintained, and very comfortable, which made the experience even more enjoyable. Captain James communicated clearly before and throughout our trip, took us to multiple fishing spots where we caught fish, and was incredibly attentive the entire time. He was always there to help anyone who needed assistance with the fishing gear and made sure everyone had a great experience. We truly appreciated his patience and professionalism. The whole family had a fantastic time, and the next time we’re in town, we’ll definitely book another trip with Captain James!

The captain was very knowledgable and friendly! Great with inexperienced fisher-people, kind and patient. We traveled to multiple spots for different species. We caught Trout, Redfish, Mangrove Snapper, catfish, a snook, and a shark! We released the Snook and Redfish as they were not in season and we also released the shark (baby Bull) but got to keep the trout and snapper to have for dinner! Would recommend 100%. Thanks again to Chris! We had a blast!

We recently took a 5-hour nearshore trip with Capt. Chris. This is the right amount to take in my opinion neither too long or too short to have ample fishing time. We went out in the 7-9 mile range and bottom fished in about 40-50 feet of water that allowed us to catch a variety of species. Capt. Chris also put out some flat lines that got a lot of action. We had plenty of live bait both minnows and shrimp were available. His boat is beautiful, fast (twin outboards) and new with a restroom aboard which allowed us the maximum fishing times possible. Overall a five-star experience!

Captain Chris was an absolute delight. Clear communication right from the beginning, down to the time we left. His boat was exactly as described and even better than we anticipated. We purposefully sought his boat over others as it seemed to have ample seating and it did! We had advised him ahead of time of what fish we were after and he remembered and did his best to ‘find us the best spots’. Although we came up short there, this was something he could not control. He kept trying new places and eventually we came back with more than enough fish to feed our tummies. Great thing, we are local and will be back for those elusive hogfish! Thanks again Captain Chris. We had a wonderful time today!!

Captain Chris was super nice and very accommodating for our family. He took us to 5 or 6 spots and we caught fish at each location. We probably caught 50+ fish in 4 hours of fishing. We caught a wide variety of species and the kids had a blast. We didn't manage to get into any big fish, but the Captain certainly tried his best to get us in good spots. Overall great experience, and would do it again.
