    Huge Goliath Grouper!

    Half Day Trip (AM)5 adults2 children

    Went offshore with my wife, our kids (8 and 9 years old), and my 74-year-old mother — and every one of us caught fish! We landed 5 Bonita, 2 Blackfin Tuna, and after an unforgettable 40-minute battle, brought a 400+ lb Goliath Grouper to the boat. Absolute catch of a lifetime. The crew made the day fun, safe, and memorable for all ages and helped create an experience our family will never forget. Sharing that moment together across three generations made it even more special. Thank you for an incredible day — highly recommend!

    Reported catch:
    Blackfin Tuna

    Oklahoma men gone fishing!

    3/4 Day Trip4 adults

    My 3 sons and I just took a 3/4 day fishing trip with Richard and Ellie Mae. We had a great time and the boat was great to fish from. The ac was a life saver for us! We didn’t catch a bunch of fish but our trip was more about bonding than anything else. We didn’t catch catch some fish to use for bait and ended up with 2 reef sharks. One was around 150 pounds. That sealed the deal for us. A huge thanks go out to Jeff and Alec too. We will be back for a Goliath grouper soon!

    Response from Captain

    Thank you so much guys. can’t wait to take you out again.

    Nice boat

    Full Day Trip6 adults

    Boat is old but in good condition and ran well. Mate was a little curt when fishermen were in his way, but I understand. Captain did a great job of keeping us out of the squalls that were with us all day and had a great Playlist. Fish could have been better, but it was literally the worst day ever to be out with rough seas and storms. The boat dog was adorable, but did get in the way sometimes. Overall pretty good trip with a couple nice fish!

    Great trip with Byrd Dog

    3/4 Day Trip2 adults

    Had a really great day on the water with Byrd Dog charters. Caught some barracuda and tuna in the morning and capped the day off with my first goliath grouper, which we safely released. It was a great time and highly recommend anyone to fish with Capt Rich and Jeff.
