    Best trip ever, best captain as well

    6 Hour Trip – Nearshore/Offshore • 4 adults

    We were scheduled to go out Wednesday, met wit Will, he said weather conditions were poor due to high winds and he wanted to give us a good trip. We rescheduled for Friday, and he recommended we shorten from a 6 hr to 4 hr due to his prior days experience. Everything he told us was spot on, and he got us on a ton of fish, red snapper (about a dozen) 3 nice white grunts, a trigger fish and a 36" dolphin (mahi), and at least a dozen broken leaders from size or teeth. Best trip I have ever been on. Seveal times had 3 fish on at once. Will worked his butt off and kept us catching fish. We will definitely go out with him next year. Good job Captain!

    Great Boat, Great Captain, Awesome Time

    2 Hour Trip – Kids • 5 adults • 3 children

    We booked relatively last minute and Will was more than accomadating. We went out with two adults and three kids. Will helped all the kids out, taught them what do to, and was very encouraging. We caught a number of different species and Will taught them all a little about each one. Will was very friendly and engaging and it felt more like we were going out to fish with a buddy. I would definitely recommend and we’ll definitely reach out next time were in town

    Reported catch:
    Flounder

    Great time on the water with my family.

    4 Hour Trip (AM) • 6 adults • 1 child

    Our captain took us to a couple intercoastal spots for some flounder that the kids had a blast catching, then took us out into the Atlantic and we caught some Spanish Mackerel and tried for some sharks. Kids wanted to go back to the flounder, the captain didn’t hesitate and ran us back in and put us on a few other spots. Big THANK YOU to Collin for taking good care of us.

    Will was excellent in moving around, trying to find fish. Catching and seeing spadefish was a blast. Seeing the 15 feet down in schools and trying to catch them was great. Kids had a blast. Will was on top of everything non-stop. No downtime.

    Captain Will was amazing. Show the kids (12-15 year olds) proper casting and reeling techniques when fishing for flounder. We caught sharks, pin fish, a toad fish, and flounder. Kids loved the trip especially since each caught a shark. Definitely recommend Captain Will.

    We had an awesome experience with Capt Will. The boat was great and we launched as soon as we met him and got out early before all of the other boats. He was super personable and made the day extremely easy. We hit a few spots looking for flounder and caught a few before switching things up where he put us on Red and Black Drum. Will definitely be fishing with him again.
