  We booked a 2-hour charter with Bear, and I’ll be straight with you—we didn’t catch any fish. But here’s the truth…this was still 100% worth it. First off, Bear is just a genuinely good guy. You can tell right away he cares about the experience, not just the catch. He was upfront, worked hard to get us on fish, and kept moving us to different spots trying to make it happen. It just wasn’t our day—sounds like it was slow for everyone out there. That said, we had absolutely perfect weather, saw massive schools of bait fish, and even a dolphin, which made the trip pretty special. More importantly, this turned into something bigger than fishing. I got two solid hours of uninterrupted time with my two sons—one heading into the Army and the other graduating next year. That kind of time is hard to come by, and this trip gave us exactly what we didn’t even realize we needed. There was a small scheduling hiccup beforehand, but it wasn’t on Bear, and he was ready to go the moment it was our time. He was also incredibly apologetic about the fishing, which honestly says a lot about his character. Fishing isn’t what it was back in the day, especially in Florida—but that’s not on the captain. What matters is effort, attitude, and experience… and Bear delivered on all three. If you’re looking for someone who’s going to give it everything he’s got and make sure you have a great time regardless of the outcome, book with Bear. We’ll be back—and next time, we’ll get ‘em.

  Great captain, great vibes!

  3 Hour Trip (AM) on May 28, 2026 • 3 adults

  We had such a great time on our fishing trip! He was extremely nice, patient, and helpful the whole time and made the whole fishing trip really fun and easygoing. The experience was fun, relaxed, and even better than we expected. He even let us stay out a little longer because he really wanted us to leave happy and hopefully catch something. You can tell he genuinely cares about his guests having a good time. Highly recommend booking with him!

  My husband, boys and I had a great time with Captain Kenny!! We caught a cool catfish and a 22.5" red fish. If we weren't onto the fish he moved us around and he was very personable. We will definitely be fishing with him when we come back to Clearwater!!

  Capt. Kenny was exactly what I was hoping fo in taking my son out on our first salt water fishing trip. He was very patient and extremely helpful with everything. He is willing to move around and find the fish. We will be booking with him again next year without a doubt.
