Half Day Trip – Inshore (AM)

Captain Anthony was friendly and knowledgeable and took us to three different spots where we caught a great variety of fish. We were three generations from 12 to 78 years old and everyone had a great time. I would book with Anthony again - I hope we have the chance!

Captain Anthony was prompt and welcomed us aboard his 26 foot cobia with twin Yamaha 150s. Our object was to keep our teenager busy, so. We fished inshore. Our first spot was the best, yielding over 20 small fish on an incoming tide. When the tide slackened so did the Fishing so we moved around to a couple of other spots which. Were less productive. Anthony was gracious; a good day.

WhenI say best ever,I have had many. I got on guided fishing trips 4-5 times a year. Anthony, the captain, was alone for this. I took my grandchildren on their first fishing boat trip and expected to be the one to encourage and help them but Anthony made it mission to be sure they left the boat excited about fishing and dying to come back and he did just that. I cannot say enough good things about our charter.

Anthony did his best to put us on fish! We caught a variety of different species and even got enough to bring a meal home. The weather did not cooperate as it was windy and cold but we still caught lots of fish and had fun. The boat was great, Anthony stayed on top of baiting hooks and removing fish. He communicated well and ensured we all had a good time. I would definitely recommend him to friends and family. Thanks again!
