When I was younger, fishing wasn't part of my lifestyle in the way that it is now. Now, there's nothing I want more than to be on the water with a rod and reel. Through the years I've learned many new things and I've really enjoyed showing others the small things that can take their angling to the next level. I'm lucky enough to say that I truly do something that I love!

    Hands Down Our Favorite Scalloping Charter!

    Private Half Day (AM) – Scalloping4 adults

    We seriously can’t brag enough about how much fun we have every time we go scalloping with him! From the moment we get on the boat, you can tell how much he genuinely cares about making sure everyone has an amazing experience. What really stands out to us is the safety. He is incredibly knowledgeable, attentive, and makes sure everyone feels comfortable and safe the entire time. At the same time, he knows exactly where to take you to find the good spots and makes sure you get the most out of your trip! We’ve had such an incredible time every time we go (3rd time with Justin), and we always leave already looking forward to the next trip. If you’re considering booking a scalloping charter, DO IT! You won’t regret it. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    best start possible to our 7 day trip

    Half Day Trip (4 People Max)4 adults

    We were a group of 2 moms and 2 teen girls. Captain Justin was so great to the girls and helped us learn what to look for and how to fish adequately for each species as we were reeling them in. He put us on fish and had us do the fishing which is what fishing is all about. We usually were catching fish st the same time which was alot of fun. He had zero issues with untangling our lines. The boat had plenty of room for all of us and there were no problems at all. He was personable and pretty entertaining! We saw eagles and nest, mangroves, ray, remora with a science lesson, dolphins right at the boat, tons of species of fish and sea turtle. and wholy cow all of the fish was delicious! even made fish nachos for breakfast to not let them go to waste. We saw massive tarpon close up as well as pelicans. I see now why he gets regular rebookings. All 4 of us instantly knew this would be the best part of our entire trip! Thank you Justin! Jamie and Amelia

    Captain Justin Rolph does it again!!

    Full Day Trip (4 People Max)2 adults

    Captain Justin Rolph may not have the biggest or fanciest boat, BUT HE WILL PUT YOU ON FISH. You should know how to cast and reel them in. He let's you fish, not just reel them in. This is unlike some other captains we saw. Their clients were sitting as the captain fished and they only stood up when he handed them the reel! If you like to catch fish, Captain Justin Rolph is the man to fish with!! Thanks Justin for another great, memorable day!

    Reported catch:
    Redfish

    Great Experience - Will Be Booking Again!!

    Private Half Day (AM) – Scalloping4 adults

    Captain Justin was terrific and provided us a great day of scalloping! It was our first time, and he was so patient and gave us lots of tips to find the scallops. He also made sure we were safe at all times/was aware of our location while diving for scallops in the open water. He was a great communicator, is very knowledgeable about the water/area, and played some great country music! We will definitely be coming back to fish/scallop with him. We could not have asked for a better Captain!

    Reported catch:
    Scallop
