Capt. Chris has been targeting Snook and Tarpon in the Stuart, Florida area since his high school days (for over 25 years). Previously he owned a boat for many years and took out friends and family. He's recently set up his charter business and always works hard for his clients. His friendly demeanor and ability to find fish ensure a good time bending rods will be had on his trips.

    The mullet run bite over the last week has been very solid with multiple tarpon days. Snook and jacks are slamming baits against the seawalls and oyster bars. Come get on the mullet run fun

    Our trip out with captain Chris was awesome! We caught a lot of fish, learned about the different kinds, and just had a very nice time out on the water. Chris is very easy going and knows what he’s doing - he allows his patrons to do the fishing themselves while he guides which was exactly what we wanted. Overall a great experience and I definitely plan on going again. Thanks Chris!!

    Chris was a excellent captain and put me onto a lot of Snook and we had a great time catching them. I would fish with Chris again and look forward to fishing with him again in the future.

    Really enjoyed the trip with captain Chris. Boat was well equipped with plenty of bait. Rods and reels worked well for handling the snook. He was at the dock and ready to go early and was on the fish. Hit multiple spots and didn’t hang out too long killing time if the bite wasn’t there. Captain Chris was friendly and patient even when we got hung up a couple times. I would highly recommend booking with him if you want an enjoyable laid back trip.
