    Wore me out!

    10 Hour Trip – Blue Water2 adults

    I’ve been on guided trips before so this isn’t new. What I noticed was how organized and clean the boat was. That makes a difference in how easy and safe it is to get around on it and for the crew to assist you. Second, these boats are never comfortable, usually a padded cooler to sit on at best and if you’re like me at 56, it wears you down being jarred across choppy waters. These guys have beanbags to sit on. I literally wasted at least 2 hours while my son fished, napping. I was tired to begin with but the actual amount of fish caught meant that for a couple hours, it seemed like every time I dropped the line in the water, I immediately caught one or two fish. As in immediately. No exaggeration. Of course due to slot limits and the law, we threw back 3 out of four fish landed, but I now have a blister on my palm and soreness in my back and shoulder from cranking the reel handle most of the day. We still ended up with a stupid amount of fish to bring home. I’d book these guys again.

    Reported catch:
    Red Snapper
    Vermilion Snapper
    King Mackerel (Kingfish)
    Response from Charter operator

    Wow, can’t ask for a much better review than that. Our goal every day is to put you on fish to the extent that you need a break. Glad the fish cooperated and we were able to wear you out. Sorry about the blister and your shoulder. Hope to see you again soon!

    Captain marshall was very entertaining. Got us on top of the fish. Whole crew had a good time. no complaints. boat was plenty big enough for the five of us. Anglers new and old will enjoy captain Marshall. experience or not, captain will get you were you need to be. make sure to get the extra red drum tag, you’ll need it!

    Great day in the Gulf

    10 Hour Trip – Blue Water3 adults

    had a great experience. 3 generations on the boat with little to no experience fishing from a boat. Captain Marshall was excellent in getting everyone comfortable put us on fish. Overall had a great experience and would recommend CaptainMarshall for anyone looking to book a trip out of Freeport.

    Reported catch:
    Wahoo
    Vermilion Snapper
    Red Snapper

    Great trip!

    10 Hour Trip – Blue Water6 adults2 children

    Caught our limit in red snapper, lots of mahi, got into the kingfish, and topped it off with a hammerhead shark that we got to pet before releasing! Captain Marshall and deckhand Sam were great at taking care of our group, including the 8 and 13 year olds.

    Response from Charter operator

    Thank you for the 5-star review! Not many people can say they’ve petted a hammerhead shark!
