  Great Time on the Water with Captain Anthony !!

  Half Day Trip (AM) up to 6 People on March 9, 2026 • 5 adults • 1 child

  Captain Anthony and his first mate were awesome. Our group of 5 was my father, myself, my two sons, and my future son-in-law with ages ranging from 68 to 10 years old. Anthony and his first mate were truly amazing. Since we had an extra spot, he even invited a fish and wildlife monitor to join us on the trip and he was measuring and tagging the fish we caught. (We have him to thank for the final fish count as the rest of us were too busy catching fish to keep track). Anthony and his first mate were always ready with new bait each time we came up bare hooked and I never had to take a fish off all day!! We ended up moving to three different spots in our 4 hour trip; we started right off caching white grunts and hog fish at the first place we stopped but once the fishing dried up and we weren't catching them immediately we moved on to a new location where we were catching small grouper, porgy and even some trigger fish in addition to the hogs and grunts. That spot was great until we got "Sharked" by a school of sand sharks that were grabbing anything that we pulled up from the bottom including the biggest grouper of the day where only half of it was left once we got it to the surface of the water. Still even with having to move to find fish and avoid the "S" words we caught over 115 fish in our 4 hour half-day trip and were able to keep over 40 of them which Anthony cleaned and bagged for us right on the dock when we got back to the harbor. Make sure you bring a wind breaker / raincoat with you for the power to and from the fishing spot as the boat moves fast but it does take some time to get 15 miles out from shore. It was a great memory and a great time with two down to earth real guys / dads fishing and doing what they loved. I'd definitely do it again.
