His boat was clean, well-equipped, and comfortable, making it a great setup for a half-day trip. My son has Down’s Syndrome and Capt. Joe took the time to teach him how to cast and reel, celebrating every moment with genuine enthusiasm. My son landed his first fish. I wholeheartedly recommend Captain Joe for anyone looking for an inshore fishing adventure in St. Augustine, especially for families or those with special needs. His professionalism, local knowledge, and genuine kindness... More

Captain Joe was amazing! He took us to some fantastic spots and helped us have an unforgettable time! We caught a LOT of fish! Made my dad’s day with all the fish he caught! Including the fights with the big ones that snapped the lines! He’s still bragging about it! Got some of the most incredible pictures for our trip! It was phenomenal! Thanks Joe for a fantastic experience! Looking forward to seeing you next year!! The M&M clan!

Captain Joe is AMAZING and created a wonderful experience for my family to get their sea legs!!  My husband and I took our three kiddos, ages 16,13,and 10, on their first deep sea fishing trip.  All three children had a blast beginning with a fantastic ride out to our fishing spot, spotting a pod of dolphins along the way, and finally stopping over a jackpot of snapper.  As soon as our lines were dropped, we had fish on.

Captain Joe went above and beyond to make sure my 2 sons, my wife and myself had a more than excellent experience on the water. Not only a great captain but also a great guy. We caught lots of fish in multiple spots and learned a lot while at sea. Anyone on the fence about doing a charter with your family don’t hesitate to book with Joe. We look forward to booking with him in the future.

Captain Joe was so nice and accommodating as well knowledgeable. He knows exactly where the fish are and didn’t waste any time on a spot that wasn’t working for us. My mom was so nervous to get out there and he made her feel so comfortable and checked on her regularly through the trip. He’s an ethical fisherman which is important to me and we caught so many different types of fish. If you want to have a fun and safe fishing trip while also catching a ton of fish, we would all highly recommend... More
