We had an excellent and fun fishing charter with Capt. John this past weekend!  This was my kids’ first “real” fishing experience, and I hadn’t fished in over 30 years, so as beginners we needed a lot of help. Capt. John was extremely kind and patient, helping each of us with every step - from baiting hooks to casting to catching and releasing the fish we caught. Prior to the charter, I was hoping just to catch one fish per person - that would have been a great day. Well, even after a... More

As any angler knows, there are days when the fish just aren’t cooperating—at least not the ones you can keep. Capt. John never gave up, constantly moving and trying new spots to get us on the fish. While it wasn’t quite the haul he was aiming for, we still had a good time reeling in a variety. We landed plenty of small sheepshead, puffers, and croakers, along with two keeper mangrove snappers, a 12-inch snook, and a surprisingly large toadfish.

We had a great experience with Captain Jon at new Smyrna Beach. We asked for keeper fish and one or two big catches and Captain John did not disappoint. We hooked up with a bunch of nice sized whitting, targeted flounder and black drum, along with a variety of other species. I’d recommend him and will be booking another trip soon.

We had a great time out on the water with John Luke. The meetup spot was easy to find, the trip started right on time, and we caught a ton of different species. John Luke is incredibly attentive and a great captain. He makes sure you’re taken care of and puts you onto good fish. Highly recommend and would book again!
