We did not catch many fish, but it would be unfair of me to lower Greg’s ratings here because I felt like he worked plenty hard.  I knew it was going to be cool and breezy. It wound up windier than either Greg or I expected.

Greg has a good boat.  One way I measure guides (I’ve been out a lot) is whether they bring all the possible bait. Greg does.  He had live shrimp, sand fleas, and croakers (and maybe other stuff).  He could find fish, they just wouldn’t eat.  To be clear, we did catch half a dozen in our three hours.

Worth noting:  When I booked this trip, I did not realize it stayed in the channel with the cruise boats.  Makes sense since the fish are in deep water during the cold, but I had not expected it.

Biggest positive is that we ran into two schools of big Jacks near the end and Greg stayed with them until we had tried every trick in the book, much longer than he needed to.  I hooked one (it straightened the hook) but we went after them.

Pleasant guy to fish with.  Would go again.

Captain Greg had every bait imaginable, a clean boat and quality gear.  We had a steady bite in some areas a slow bite in others.  That’s fishing.  There were other charters in the area and we did better than the rest.  No doubt it was because Greg had all the right bait choices and worked the sonar constantly.  I’ll charter with him again in the future.

Greg did a fantastic job putting us on some fish.  We caught big snook, sea trout, hammerheads, black tipped shark, and other small fish like croaker.  We caught a ton of fish and left with a cooler full of filets. Greg was very personable, professional, and all around easy to work with. He worked really well with my younger one who gets distracted easily.  It was a great experience.  We even saw dolphins, manatees, and sea turtles.  Greg also gave us recommendations with some other charters who specialize in deep sea adventures. 

Highly recommended, book with Greg you will not be disappointed!!!!

Had an excellent trip with Captain Greg this past weekend. Despite slower action, Captain Greg got us into some good fishing and caught at least 6-different species of fish! Very fun and really nice boat for a group of 3 to get out there near-shore. Would 10/10 recommend to others looking into some near-shore fishing action.

came down for vacation between Christmas and new year’s to celebrate my twin boys 13th birthday. Booked the trip a week or so in advance. Weather was cold and windy, but the captain made the best of it and put us on several species of fish in multiple locations. Had a good time despite the conditions.
