Captain Cory was outstanding from start to finish. Even with the rough water making it tough to tell when we had a bite, he stayed incredibly patient, kept encouraging us, and coached everyone through it. His knowledge of the area and the fish was obvious, and he worked hard to keep us on the fish all morning.

We ended up catching several triggerfish and a great-sized king mackerel, which made for an awesome trip. The biggest thrill, though, was hooking into an absolute giant that I fought for nearly 20 minutes before it finally broke me off. It was heartbreaking to lose it, but it’s the kind of battle you never forget—and Captain Cory was right there the whole time, helping and giving advice.

If you’re looking for a captain who’s knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely wants everyone on the boat to have a great experience, Captain Cory is the one to book. We had an amazing time and would absolutely fish with him again!

We had the best day with Cory! We arrived a little early, and he was already there, completely set up and ready for us to head out.  Cory was great with our 11-year-old son. He was so patient with all of his questions and never hesitated to help bait his hook over and over throughout the trip. The fishing was fantastic! We fished in several different sreas and caught several different species, including a huge red grouper and a mahi mahi!
At the end of the day, our son said, “That was the best day EVER!” We highly recommend booking a trip with Cory if you’re looking for a fun, family-friendly fishing charter. We’ll definitely be booking with him again the next time we are in the area!

This morning, my 11-year-old daughter and I had an absolutely incredible fishing experience with Captain Cory. We showed up about 15 minutes early, and he was already there waiting for us with everything fully prepared and ready to go—no stress, no delays, just smooth sailing from the start.
Within five minutes of getting out on the water, we were already catching fish! It was nonstop action, which made it especially exciting for my daughter. Captain Cory was patient, helpful, and clearly experienced—he made sure she was comfortable, confident, and having a great time the entire trip.
By the end, we had an awesome catch, and to top it all off, he cleaned everything for us before we left. That level of service really stood out.
Most importantly, my daughter had an amazing time, and that made the whole experience priceless. If you’re looking for a fun, family-friendly fishing trip with a knowledgeable and professional captain, I can’t recommend Captain Cory enough. We’ll definitely be back!

Half day 5-hour trip. On the way out we took 4 Spanish Mackerel in just two passes trolling. (Could have taken many more, but we were targeting Red Snapper. He put us on them. We caught 7 (5 were keeper size). We broke off on three monsters. But The highlight was my daughter in law landing a 36” King Mackerel. What a trip! Thanks Cory.

took my son and his friend, all 3 novices. Corey asked what I wanted and my only request was get the boys on some fish. We trolled in the inlet briefly got one a catch then headed out to the gulf caught 2 more spanish mackrel. Then did some bottom fishing. Corey found the fish and set us all up with rigs. Had some big ones break lines and reeled in a few others. I would recommend booking at least the 4hr trip.
