    Best Fishing Charter ever!!

    4 Hour Trip – Jetty (AM) • 2 adults

    I scheduled this as a Christmas gift for my daughter and son-in- law who were visiting from Boston where they have been on many charters. They said this was the best charter they ever went on. They raved about Captain Billy- they had a blast catching red snappers ( that they couldn’t keep but made for great photos) and black bass that was cooked for dinner. Thank you, thank you for making me look great as a brilliant gift giver!

    Amazing bachelor party trip

    6 Hour Trip – Offshore • 4 adults

    Capt. Billy was amazing. He knew exactly where to go immediately to catch some live bait. And took us to the jetties and instantly started to get bites. It was pretty choppy out that day but he made it comfortable for us and got us within the strike zone. Then after fishing that spot we headed a couple miles off shore and went shark fishing. Honestly it was the most fun I’ve had fishing ever he knew exactly where the sharks were and within seconds he had one hooked. Fortunately he was able to get all 4 of us a really good size shark and it will definitely live in our memories forever. Between cracking jokes and teaching us how to fish overall it was an experience I would recommend to everyone. By far the best fishing trip I’ve done and will definitely be coming back. And he was kind enough to fillet the shark that we caught and the flounder and trout.

    Captain Billy was exceptional! So informative, fun, and very experienced! We caught so many fish! Hated to release many but Captain Billy really knows his stuff and follows the rules. We had a great time and can’t wait to go with Amelia Island Sport Fishing again!
