  6 - Hours Half Day Trip on June 23, 2026 • 2 adults

  I have waited for years for red snapper season to line up with a vacation, this year it did. I shared with Captain James that we wanted to catch our limit. On the day of our charter the water was pretty rough even in the bay. We arrived at the pass and he let us decide whether we wanted to continue into 3 ft. swells. I really appreciated that he acknowledged our comfort level, which he did for the entire trip. We have some near shore fishing experience and Captian James picked up on that. He knew when to step in and when to step out. He piloted out to where the big reds were and helped us get our limit. Thank you Captian for this great experience. Hope to see you next snapper season.

  Great Captain, Tough Conditions

  4 - Hour Trip - 1:00 PM on May 12, 2026 • 2 adults

  Even though the fish weren’t biting quite like we hoped and the weather man definitely oversold the conditions, we still had a great time with Angeleyes Fishing. Captain James did everything he could to make the most of a tough day on the water. You can tell he genuinely cares about giving people a good experience, no matter the conditions. Great conversations, good vibes, and high hopes the whole trip. We still made memories and enjoyed every minute out there. Appreciate the effort and hospitality, Captain James — we’d definitely come back and give it another shot.

  Great first time

  6 - Hours Half Day Trip on March 27, 2026 • 2 adults • 1 child

  My son and I have never been fishing other than lakes or ponds. This was a great first time experience. James walked us through the day, talked about what kind of fish we would most likely be catching. It took me a while to get use to this style of fishing. James showed us what the different bite styles would feel like for the fish we were catching. I should have warned him sometimes we are betting at feeding the fish than catching. Overall it was a great experience. Couldnt ask for better weather, great conversation, and fun fishing. 6 hours was probably just the right amount of time for my 11 year old son. Any less I think he qoukd have been frustrated as to not being able to fish as much, anymore probably would have got tired and aggitated if nothing was biting. Thank you James for the experience. Until next time!

  Captain James was awesome

  4 - Hour Trip on September 14, 2026 • 2 adults

  Had already caught a ton of fish and was getting ready to wrap things up when our casting line went crazy. We knew there was something huge on the line. It took 30 minutes to reel it a 6-7 foot shark weighing 300-400 lbs. Captain James was super patient and helpful getting it up to the boat. We couldn't of done it with out his guidance. Definitely will go back out with him on our next Pensacola trip.

  delfines a la vista

  4 - Hour Trip on June 12, 2026 • 3 adults

  nos trajimos 3 peces ya que los otros no cumplian con el minimo necesario, el capitan fue muy atento , embarcacion un poco pequeña pero precisa para la cantidad de personas , que fuimos, vimos varios delfines, nos surtió de hielo y limpio nuestros peces, nos llevo a alta mar lo cual nos puso nervioso porque habia mucho oleaje en el camino y alguno se mareó, parte de la experiencia!! gracias
