  Best of the Best

  5 Hour Trip – Inshore on December 12, 2025 • 2 adults

  Capt. Joel is the real deal. We were on the fish from the firsr second we got lines in the water. Capt. Joel is a most repsectful and knowledgeable Captain. We limited out on snapper and grouper. unbelievable day on the water. Capt. Joel took extra special care since we had a handicapped friend on the boat and Capt. Joel went above and beyond for him. we had a wonderful, blessed day. Great boat, clean, and dialed in. wow. what an experience.

  Morning Inshore Fishing Trip with Captain Joel Wier

  5 Hour Trip – Inshore on May 1, 2025 • 3 adults

  We had the best day out on the water with Captain Joel Wier. Our ride out to the fishing area, to our surprise, was accompanied by some dolphins, and we spotted a few sea turtles during our trip. 🐢 😀. Captain Joel put us on the fish right away. We had fun catching some smaller fish and then my son and husband caught some nice dinner size mackerel, which turned out to be very tasty. Captain Joel shared his instructions for cooking, which turned out to be perfect for the boys. Captain Joel's boat is super comfortable for being able to maneuver around while catching fish, and we felt very safe. Thank you Captain Joel for creating a wonderful family day memory for us. We enjoyed ourselves thoroughly and would highly recommend Captain Joel. 😀

  Great Experience

  5 Hour Trip – Offshore on June 26, 2024 • 5 adults • 2 children

  We were down late June of 2024. Joel was a very easy-going fella. He has modern electronics and he knows how to use them. His boat is clean and well equipped for what he is doing. His rod/reels are in good shape and ready to go. He does need to update his listing on this site. His boat is now sporting twin Yamaha 300s. It's a sharp looking boat. Our party was two adults, a 15 year old and two 11 year old youth. The goal for our trip was for the kids to get to experience this type of luxury. Joel was very accommodating. We went out about 18 miles and when he said to "drop 'em", I don't think it was 15 seconds and we had a fish on. The seas went from 1ft to 2-4' with some 5' waves scattered in so it got pretty rough (weather man missed it again). Three of the five of us weren't feeling all that great and Joel said "I'll stay as long as you want, or we can go back and try in-shore where it is a little calmer." The only thing that I would change about our trip is the one thing that no man can change.... the sea. Captain put us on the fish, I can't emphasize that enough. Another thing that left a good impression was Joel's patience with our question laden adolescent kids. When we got back into calmer waters and he had the opportunity, he took the time to answer any question the kids would ask(boat, equipment, rigging, etc) not short answers either, actually explaining in a way that the kids could learn. If you're on the fence, just go ahead and book the charter. Show up with your own drinks (not sodas either, water and maybe some gatorade-you need to stay hydrated) some snacks and some sunscreen. Joel has the rest. It is best to show up 5-10 minutes early (that goes for any charter.) Once our trip was over, I hated to leave. I felt like I made a friend. I anticipate that you will get that same vibe too. Great experience.

  Caught Our Limit and Learned A lot Too!

  4 Hour Trip - Snapper and Grouper on May 26, 2024 • 4 adults

  Cap’n Joel was careful to communicate with us leading up to the trip and was willing to push out a bit further than normal to be sure we found them. Caught our limit on white snapper, learned how to filet them out and now we’re prepping for a fish dinner! How else do you define a successful fishing trip?! Would love to go again, but preferably when the season and time available would allow us to go out farther for something bigger than white snapper! Great trip for my wife and I and made some great memories with our two teenage sons!

  Great Trip with lots of fish

  5 Hour Trip – Inshore on July 19, 2024 • 6 adults

  We booked a trip with the family as a birthday gift for my husband and had a blast. The boat was large enough for our whole family with plenty of room to move around, we had a bathroom on board and the ride out and back was beautiful. We even saw a double rainbow on the way out. Oh and we caught a lot of fish too. Capt Joel was great at putting us right on them. We will book again soon.
