    Best fishing trip in years !

    6 Hour Trip — Offshore Near Coastal • 3 adults

    We caught a bunch of different fish, from Toad-Fish to Sand-Bass and a ton of Pink-Fish. Hector was super fast with unhooking the fish and setting up the bait so we could be non-stop fishing. He even set up a larger pole in order for us to have a chance at catching barracuda and such. He was super friendly and funny. The thing that set Hectors charter apart from all the others we have ever done is that he didn't count the time it took to drive out to sea and back in, so the time we paid for was pure fishing time! All in all the trip was amazing and we would instantly book Hector again.

    Amazing fishing experiance!

    6 Hour Trip — Offshore Near Coastal • 4 adults

    We had an amazing time fishing with Captain Hector! He was professional, friendly, and worked hard to make sure everyone had a great experience. We caught plenty of fish, learned a lot, and enjoyed every minute on the water. Captain Hector knows all the right spots and made the trip fun from start to finish. If you're looking for a great fishing charter, I highly recommend booking with Captain Hector. We can't wait to come back and fish with him again!

    Great Off Shore Fishing Experience

    6 Hour Trip — Offshore Near Coastal • 3 adults

    Recommend Stellar Charters as a must. I have been on numerous off shore/deep sea fishing trips throughout the world and this has been one of the best. Cpt Hector got us on the fish within 5 minutes from arriving to fishing grounds. We were a party of 3. Caught well over 60 fish, probably 8 different spiecies and kept 21 fish were kept. This was our second trip with Cpt Hector in 4 days and was totally memorable. A Great Captain who takes care of his patrons.

    Reported catch:
    Black Seabass
    Flounder
    Red Snapper

    Tons of fun! Captain Hector is top notch!

    6 Hour Trip – Offshore Nea (copy) • 2 adults

    Captain Hector put us on some black sea bass! We caught several others we couldn’t keep which kept it fun. He showed us a good time. It was my daughter’s first time out on the ocean and it was well worth it. I’d definitely book with Stellar again! He was up front about the water possibly being choppy several days before the trip. It turned out to be not as bad as predicted, that’s always good. Book with him! You won’t regret it!
