I went out with three of my boys and my nephew (ages 10-19). Captain Scott and first mate Travis were awesome! We started the day with some technical difficulties, but, rather than getting frustrated or making excuses, they calmly problem solved and had us on our way in a timely manner. Even though it was a little choppier that day, they were not afraid to get us out to where they knew there would be good fishing. They kept us on fish and were proactive in moving to new locations when the bite slowed. We are all freshwater fisherman from MN and new to ocean fishing. They gave good instruction and were patient even when we mishandled some BIG ones that got away. They were even able to keep things light-hearted when members of our group got a little (or a lot) sea sick.
The only suggestions that I have for improvement are that they could have been a little more assertive with their advice on pre-treating for sea sickness prevention, and could improve the beverage selection to include some electrolyte replacing options.
Overall, an awesome new experience! I highly recommend Sudden Strike Offshore.

we had an excellent offshore fishing trip. Captain Scott and 1st Mate Travis were great. They provided all the fishing gear we needed and were great to talk with when the fishing slowed down. Communication was great leading up to the trip. Captain Scott was quick to answer my questions by text. At the end of the trip they clean and filleted all of the fish we caught. My family had a wonderful trip and would definitley book with Captain Scott and Sudden Stike again.

Captain Scott and his mate gave my friends and I a great fishing experience to remember.  His boat was comfortable and ready for fishing. Let him know we wanted Big fish more than lots of fish. He and his mate did both for us!!  First stopping point the oldest person in the group felt the need to hand the pole to his son to reel in! It was awesome! Hit a few spots that continually produced fish, the largest brought to to boat was a full grown Sand Bar Shark. Love this one due to the fact it ran the first time to the boat. Released quickly with a great video. So many snappers and one trigger fish. Took all that we kept to a local place to have them cooked up. Thank you Scott for the great day Offshore!!

The whole trip was great. The pick up and instructions to the dock were good, even an English tourist could find it!
Capt. Scott and crew Travis were very helpful and chatty from the off, very informative. The boat and equipment was great and well explained. Being novices to this type of fishing the experience was amazing all 4 off us enjoyed the half day trip. Capt. Scott and Travis explained techniques very well and were very patient with a bunch of novices, we all caught fish and had a throughly good outing.
Would definitely book again on the next Florida visit, thanks guys for a great day.

Captain Scott was really nice to us and accommodating for what my son and I wanted out of a trip like this. The weather wasn’t ideal but Captain was considerate of that when moving from spot to spot. He and his assistant Travis did a nice job making sure equipment was ready and working well for us. They had us try a couple of different methods of fishing, both of which worked for catching a variety of fish.
