Probably the best charter experience we have had, given the thoughtful approach by John Paul. We packed three different experiences into the same outing. Was a plus that we caught a bunch of fish. John Paul is a very knowledgeable and helpful educator! Also great with teenagers. Thanks again.

We asked Jon if we could target some species we normally do not catch in Pine Island Sound where we fish on our own boat often. We asked to target Bonefish, Permit and Tarpon and we would also be fine catching any other species that may be plentiful. We went to many spots that he knew we would see these species. We caught 3 Bonefish in the very first location he picked out. We went to another spot where he said we may find Permit. We did see 1 very large one but were not close enough to cast to.... More

Our trip was on time. He had everything we needed. My wife has not fished much and she was highly successful with Jon-Paul’s help. We knocked several species off of our bucket list. From polling the flats, sneaking through the mangroves or hitting bridge’s bridges when the tide swing was perfect, he had the trip lined out beautifully! I would highly recommend! A true gentleman and interesting young man to spend the day with.

My wife and I had a great time fishing with Jon-Paul. He put us on some fish. First fish was a 100+ tarpon. Made a beautiful run and jump. But we lost. Way it goes. Then we caught handful of sharks. Very fun fighting. The last fish was a Jack Caravelle and it was a dandy. Super strong fighting fish. Circled us around the boat a few times. Great day on the water. Thanks Jon-Paul

Fishing conditions were not ideal but Jon Paul was still able to put us on the fish!! Good quality Snook, grouper, reds, jacks, snapper and sharks!  Left the dock early, came back late, 100% effort, and all of our targeted species in the boat.  What else can you ask for? Even Got a spotless redfish, only spotless red fish in my life!  Boat was smooth and dry in chop high quality st croix rods and gear in good condition.  It was a pleasure to fish with Jon Paul, good conversations and knowledgeable...
