At the heart of Native Fishing Charters is a true husband-and-wife team. Captain Bobby Horn and First Mate Alyssa work in sync every day, creating a level of care, consistency, and passion you won't find just anywhere.

The result is more than just a fishing trip—it's a well-run, memorable experience shaped by knowledge, passion, and a genuine love for what they do.

I really don’t think I have had a better time on the water than what we experienced yesterday. As point of reference.. I’m from the Boston area with summers down the Cape, so I have spent lots of time on the water. The kindness shown to my 15 year old grandson melted my heart. There way no way Bobby(skipper) was going back in until our grandson snagged a big one. Mission accomplished !! What a wonderful experience.

First off Captain Bobby and 1st mate Alyssa were very welcoming and knowledgeable. My two sons and I caught our Mangrove snapper limit in a short time. We also caught Black Sea Bas, Grunts, and Spotted Sea Trout. Thank you Captain Bobby and 1st mate Alyssa for a memory making trip with my two sons.
