Captain Jim and mate Darius were outstanding! Accommodating, friendly, fun! They quickly joined our family’s ribbing of each other - couldn’t ask for anything better.

Our original charter had to be delayed a few days due to Tropical Storm / Hurricane Debby, and Capt. Jim was very easy to work with to arrange suitable, alternative dates/times.

The boat itself is very well equipped for angling. At 25’, we had more than enough room with 4 adults plus Capt. Jim & Darius.

The fishing…well, I think I will call it catching. Capt. Jim had a location where we spent 2 hours reeling in Red Snapper, Black and Red Grouper, and Triggers. In August, in the heat, we were nonstop catching fish. As we were out of season, it was all catch and release.

Fish with Capt. Jim and Darius - you will have a great day!

We caught 4 King Mackerel, even a 30-Pounder, in a swarm Capt Jim found for us. Darius knows exactly how, when and how fast to act to catch the best game fish going right now in July ‘24. Our haul included Mahi-Mahi, Red Snapper and Black Snapper on the bottom, and even a bigger fish - literally the big one that got away - that this reviewer sadly let get away (nod to Darius’ expertise). You cannot have a better trip then with Capt Jim and Darius.

Our 24-Aug trip with Captain Jim was the best charter experience I ever had!  The professionalism and knowledgeable experience led to an outstanding day of fishing that will never be forgotten. Captain Jim truly cares about your experience and making it as nice as it can be, just a great guy in every way.  He put us on a lot of fish and concluded the day with a rare opportunity to catch a 6’ sandbar shark which was over the top…  Yes, that never happens again most likely but the trip was perfect even if that never happened.  I will only book furture trips with Captain Jim next year and moving forward.  Outstanding experience with a super nice guide!

Man, we got out and within the first 10 mins, we put 2 BIG mag groupers on the boat, LOTS of red grouper, red snapper, remora, and then, we battled a MASSIVE 10ft bull shark for 1 hour and 20 mins. And then about 20 mins later, we hooked another 8ft shark, battled him for 40 mins!

Painful, tiring, but SO MUCH FUN!!! Great captain with experience and kindness. Y’all book this guy!!
