Scott Housel

Member since April 2015 Daytona Beach, United States

Background: I started fishing when I was 5 years old. In 1989 I moved to Central Florida to attend Stetson University, became a certified scuba diver, and have been diving and fishing out of Ponce Inlet ever since. Although I have landed plenty of monsters, I now find more enjoyement helping others experience the thrill of landing the fish of a lifetime.
Techniques: Whether you prefer bottom fishing, trolling, tournament fishing or spearfishing; I have the experience and knowledge of these waters to help find the fish.

It was an amazing trip. I highly recommend, it’s great for the kids and adults. We caught a lot of bait fish but a few good things we couldn’t keep. Hope you enjoy it as much as we did

My husband and father in law had an awesome day with Scott on his gorgeous 30’ Contender. Scott took them where they wanted to go, guided them and had exceptional communication before going to make certain everything was set. They had an outstanding day on the water with Scott! I can’t say enough about the memorable time…..we will definitely be going again!! Thank you Scott.

We booked this fishing trip for my son’s birthday and he and his friends had a great time. Captain Scott was very friendly, patient and knowledgeable. He took us to some great fishing spots where we caught many different kinds of fish including some “keepers”. Overall it was a brilliant day and we’d definitely sail on Sudden Strike again. Thanks, Nate…

Thank you for fishing with Sudden Strike. I am sorry you didn’t enjoy your day. I wish you would have provided more details because it’s seems like you weren’t happy with anything, the boat, the crew, or your experience. I realize in your comments when booking you indicated this was your first time. I’m not sure what your experience is or what your expectations were, but there can be a huge learning curve to have a successful outing. I can tell by the pictures that the ocean conditions were excellent, I know the boat is always in great shape and as a captain I do everything possible to put customers on fish. In the photos you are holding a mangrove snapper, a red grouper and a red snapper so I can see fish were biting. Why did you wait a month and half to submit a review?
