My brother and I went on a gulf stream trip with Captain Don and had the best fishing trip of our lives!!! Don is a great Captain and made sure we got that “one last fish!” Not only did he ensure we got that one last fish, he made sure we got the fish we were fishing for. He is an A+ navigator and has an A+ personality! His first mate, Hayes, worked his butt off to make sure our lines were properly baited and always had bait on them. He knew the inside and outside of that boat and gear and... More

For my first ever time deep sea fishing I had an awesome time catching fish and enjoying my time with my crew Donnie and Owen. I’m already looking forward to a full day and inviting others. I’m spreading the word about my experience and saving up to book the next voyage.Thank you Donnie and Owen for your hospitality and personalities.Had a great time. Amanda Hedrick

Second trip with Captain Donnie and Owen and they did not disappoint. They know how to find the fish and have a lot of fun doing it. While other boats struggle to get bites we were hauling up fish one after another. These guys are masters of their craft genuinely good people. We’ll be going again and I’d recommend them to anyone.

Donnie the Captain and his Mate Owen were top notch! These guys worked hard getting us on fish: I would definitely charter with them again.

Capt. Donnie took our family of 5 out on our first chartered fishing trip and he did not disappoint. We started near shore fishing for Spanish mackerel but then he took us several miles out to catch much larger fish. The trip was for my son’s 30th birthday and he certainly loved every minute of it. He can’t wait to do it again and is already planning another trip. We all highly recommend Tried and True if you are looking for a great day of fishing!
