    10,000 Island Fishing with Captain Jimmy

    2.5 Hr Ten Thousand Islands 9am • 5 adults • 1 child

    Had an awesome time out on the water with Captain Jimmy. From start to finish, everything was smooth and well-run. We ended up catching several sharks and catfish, which made for a seriously exciting trip—but the highlight was seeing a manta ray jump completely out of the water right in front of us. Unreal experience. Best part though—my six-year-old caught a fish on the very first cast and ended up catching more than anyone else on the boat. That alone made the trip unforgettable. Captain Jimmy knows his stuff, keeps things fun, and makes sure everyone is having a good time. Whether you’re experienced or just going out for fun, I’d definitely recommend booking a trip with him.

    2.5 Hr Ten Thousand Islands 9am • 2 adults

    Had a great time with Captain Jimmie! He was patient and had great advice and tricks. we caught tons of catfish and snappers! He and his wife also were super knowledgeable about the area and the wildlife and it was super interesting to learn about considering we are from landlocked Missouri! Me and my mom definitely want to come back and bring my dad one day! :)

    Great day on the water!

    5 Hour Offshore 9am • 4 adults

    We had a great day fishing. w started out catching mostly jack and catfish but then we caught a Goliath grouper and some snapper. Saw dolphins and sea turtles as well as a very big shark. We think it was a black tip. Overall it was a very fun trip.
