  Loved it

  Half Day Sport Fishing on July 30, 2026 • 6 adults • 3 children

  Yesterday was my first ever deep sea fishing experience. Captain Ron and Damien were outstanding, my youngest spent most of the time sitting up top with Captain Ron and tricked him into eating a Taki. We caught multiple fish and the kids got to real them in. Captain Ron and Damien were highly experienced and worked quite hard to give my family a great experience. I booked with Don't Panic because the reviews were terrific, and I'm happy to say the reviews were spot on. Im looking forward to booking with them when I'm back in Florida again.

  Another Great Day Aboard Don’t Panic

  6 Hour Sport Fishing on March 18, 2026 • 4 adults

  Our second year in a row—and always special when you get to fish with your wife and daughters. Captain Ron and First Mate Angel were outstanding. When the seas got rough (at least for us), Captain Ron did a great job making everyone feel comfortable, and Angel was right there with great advice—no one got sea sick. They also put us on the fish—we caught a wahoo, 4 blackfin tunas, and a bonita. They even recommended The Cove to have our fresh catch prepared, and it did not disappoint. The tuna nachos, wahoo fish tacos, and wahoo entrée were all amazing. The boat is amazing too—plenty of space and a great cabin to hang out in and stay out of the weather when needed. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a great fishing trip with a crew you can trust.

  Trolling within sight of the shore

  Half Day Sport Fishing on May 30, 2026 • 6 adults

  For someone who lives further up the coast, it is wild to troll in the Gulfstream within sight of the shore. It was a slow morning but that did not mean the captain and mate weren’t working hard to make the most of it for our boys. We ended up bringing a blacking tuna, a Bonita, and a kingfish into the cooler. The music selection helped set the tone. I loved fishing to the tunes. We even got a great recommendation for a restaurant that could cook our catch.

  Great Trip!

  Half Day Sport Fishing on May 3, 2026 • 4 adults

  4 hour trip and a rainy morning, but deckhand John and Captan Lucas got us on fish. John was incredivly knowledgeable and took time to explain various fishing techniques. He is passionate about fishing and we all had an awesome time! He got my mom and wife on some fish and guided them through the whole catch.

  First sport fishing charter

  Half Day Sport Fishing - 8:00 AM on March 21, 2026 • 5 adults

  Booked a morning charter with 3 friends and had a fantastic time with Capt. Lucas and John. They were well organized and very knowledgeable about the Mahi we were fishing for. John did an excellent job keeping the lines rigged up, knew exactly when the fish were jumping, and made sure we had a catch to take home with us. They were super friendly and a pleasure to spend the morning with. Would absolutely book Don’t Panic Sport-fishing again.
