    Highly Recommend Hardheaded Charters LLC!

    4 Hour Trip2 adults

    We had an outstanding trip with Hardheaded Charters LLC and Captain Luke! From the moment we got on the water, Captain Luke was professional, friendly, and worked hard to make sure we had a great experience. Partway through the trip, my son started getting a little motion sick. Captain Luke immediately adjusted our plans, checked on him several times, and made sure he was comfortable. He even extended our trip to make up for the time we lost while getting my son feeling better. That level of customer service meant a lot to us. Even with the adjustment, we caught several fish, including a few keepers, and stayed busy catching others throughout the trip. It was a fun day on the water, and Captain Luke did everything he could to put us on fish while making sure everyone enjoyed themselves. If you're looking for a knowledgeable captain who genuinely cares about his customers and goes above and beyond, I highly recommend Captain Luke with Hardheaded Charters LLC. We'll definitely be booking another trip!

    Best trip ever!!!!

    4 Hour Trip2 adults

    This was the best trip ever. I cant believe how great of a day it was. We were on the fish immediately, we caught our limit on multiple species in just a few hours. Captain Luke was an amazing captain that made you feel like you were on a trip with the boys. It was very refeshing being with a guide who truly loves what he does and actually wants to be there. I would recommend him to anyone. I will be giving him a call everytime I come to the area from now on!!!

    Best Trip worth the money!!!

    12 Hour Trip

    Best guide out there!!! Captain Luke was very attentive from the very beginning when we had questions regarding services to the time we got back to the dock with plenty of fish. Perfect for beginner family fishing trip or a trip with expert anglers for a fish haul. Captain Luke put us on the fish. Extremely knowledgeable in everything fish related and very personable made it both fun and educational. You can tell his his heart is in it, we spoke the entire time, hilarious dude. He seems to want to leave a lasting impression on his clients. Captain Luke went above and beyond our expectations, Absolutely the Best guided trip I've Ever been on. Will definitely be booking again. Cheers.

    Good times, Solid Trip

    4 Hour Trip2 adults

    Enjoyed are trip with Captain Luke, no shortage of fish caught, solid boat and reels. I've been on a few guided trips and Captain Luke made sure we were always over fish, replaced snagged or damaged hooks quick and stepped in to help us get our lines back in the water quick to keep us in the game. Would recommend, I'll be reaching back for late summer trip.

If you're after Bull Reds, target them at the jetties using Crabs. You'll also find Sheepshead and Black Drum there but, to hook them, you should use live Shrimp.
