Alabama, US•Member since 2025•2 trips5.0VerifiedNEWoutstanding day of fishing
8 Hour Trip – Bottom Fishing • 6 adultsonly gave 5 stars because there were no other higher options. Captain Evan and 1st mate Jon-Jon were absolutely outstanding. The day started off a little sketchy with the weather but cleared up and we absolutely slayed them. limited on vermilion snapper, and caught some nice white snapper. finished the day off by catching two tanks. a 23lb. red snapper and a +/- 20 lb Amber jack. if you want an awesome fishing experience please contact these guys. they will not disappoint

3/4 Day Trip – Bottom Fishing • 6 adultsWe landed some nice snapper and caught several bonito. The captain was very knowledgeable and a pleasure to be around. we enjoy out trips with guides that are laidback yet professional. They out is on fish and made sure ALL SIX of us were busy and taken care of while we wanted to fish. Three of us were very experienced, two are moderately experienced and one novice. They catered to each of us based on our experience levels. The absolute bedt compliment is that they asked us what we wanted to accomplish that day, and they did their best to make it happen as if it were scripted specifically for us. Top notch gear, experienced and personable captain, AND they listened to what we specifically wanted…cant beat that. as far as we’re concerned, if/when we return to perdido key/pensacola we have our guy from now on! 100% recommend. we had a blast as a family…Lucky 13 helped us create some new memories.

4 Hour Shark Fishing • 6 adultsWe took the 4 hour shark trip. Captain Evan and First Mate John were amazing with our kids!! We first trolled for bait fish, then went to the bay to fish for shark. We had a hit, so my 11 YO son was on it. Then there was another hit, so then my 9 YO daughter worked on that one. Both men jumped into action and did everything they could to coach both kids to get the sharks on board. We got the one on the boat that my daughter got, but unfortunately, my sons got off. We hooked two more and the last one was a hammerhead. They are endangered so we werent able to get it to the boat, but Captain Evan got up top and got a really cool video of my son reeling it in. It finally got off. We were at least able to walk away with some fine tooth shark fillets as well as some Makarel fillets. We will definitely book with them in the future!! Worth every penny!

3/4 Day Trip – Bottom Fishing • 5 adultsWhat a great offshore trip. We met Capt. Evan and John at the docks they were super nice and personable they put a game plan together based on what we wanted to fish for, and outlined the trip for us. They were both very informative and worked hard on our 6 hour to find fish and each spot got better and on the last leg we were catching red snapper and vermilion snapper on just about every drop of the line. We couldnt have ask or expected such a great experience. From your friends from Texas we will be back !

Half Day Trip – Trolling • 6 adultswe absolutely loved our time fishing with this group. They were knowledgeable, kept us in the middle of the fish, so downtime was limited, and really just enjoyed all of it. Our captain, our crew, the boat, everything was just fantastic!! I would definitely use this company again. I can’t wait till my next trip down to Florida so we can go fishing with them. I really can’t stress enough the value for money. I could not be happier and highly recommend this group.
