My dad got me into fishing and boating when I was a little boy and I've been hooked ever since. I've spent a lot of time on the water because that's what I love. It's a true passion of mine, and wouldn't trade it for the world. I love taking kids or beginners out for the first time, seeing them catch their first fish. I love seeing the smiles on people's faces when they catch a new species they've never caught before. To me, that's really what it's all about!

    Friendly and flexible

    Half Day Inshore Trip (PM)4 adults2 children

    Alex made our trip simple and flexible. He met us at the dock promptly even when we were 30 minutes early to our reservation. Got out to the fishing spots quickly and was ready with bait etc. Super professional and had a great time. Quick with fileting the fish and had bags etc. I would definitely book with Alex again! Thanks for the memorable trip with my two sons and father!

    Half Day Inshore Trip (AM)5 adults

    4hr inshore morning trip for the family. Alex knew exactly where to put us on the fish, he was all over the boat making sure everyone had bait in the water. We caught our limit of Redfish in the first few hours and then moved to target sea trout. We caught more sea trout than we could count and kept a few lovely big ones. We also had some Spanish Mackeral that we landed and overall had a brilliant trip. Highly recommend!

    Booked a half day trip on a very busy weekend and we still had a great day fishing. We were catching fish the whole time we were on the boat.
