    Whole family had fun!

    Half Day Trip (Private)7 adults2 children

    We had an absolute blast on our fishing trip! The whole family had such a great time, and we caught SO many fish. The crew was fantastic and especially great at getting even our shy kids involved and excited about fishing. The kids became fascinated with the fish’s eyes, so our mate actually dissected one for them—talk about biology lessons at the beach! 😂 The also saw and held a fish heart! It was such a fun, memorable experience for the whole family. Highly recommend this trip for families. We’ll definitely be talking about this adventure for a long time! 🎣🐟

    Awesome crew for an awesome trip

    Full Day Trip 8 Hour (Private)9 adults

    Crew was great! boat had an awning on the back that provided great shade from the harsh sun. deck mate was very knowledgeable of the fish and how to catch them. the captain gave us options on how we wanted to proceed with the trip (trollng, bottom fishing, shark, or letting them find the big ones and letting you fight them until your out of breath) we did catch the biggest fish we ever caught. we caught a variety of trigger, amberjack, lizard fish, sea bass, red snapper, sea robbin, and some other odd fish we didnt know what was. they started by dragging bottom to catch fresh bait and also gave us all the squid, and shrimp that come up with the bait fish. highly recommend and would book with them again!

    Great Experience

    Half Day Trip (Private) - 4:00 PM5 adults

    Captain Lawrence and First Mate Mike were fantastic. You will be lucky if you find others that are good. They did everything to make this experience a wonderful one. We trolled for a while and caught fish one right after another and on multiple lines at the same time. After a while we stopped trolling and went shark fishing. While it requires more patience, reeling in a 150 pound shark was worth the wait. While there were only five of us the boat could easily ten people with room to spare. Even if some just went a long for the ride there would be plenty of room to sit and relax and just enjoy the time on the water. I am planning on going out again next year, hopefully for a full day. I consider us lucky to have found Long Line out of all the charters there were too choose from. Thanks for the beautiful day.

    March trip- sea bass

    Half Day Trip (Private) - 11:30 AM4 adults1 child

    When trolling was unsuccessful we switched to bottom fishing which was much better. We didn't catch any prize winners but we were reeling in black sea bass left and right, sometimes 2 at a time, and got a few keepers. The captain would move when they quit biting to get us back on the fish. Mike, our first mate, was hard working, really helpful, and nice to chat with. He baited our hooks fast when needed, unhooked our fish, and got us fishing as much as possible. It was a nice big, very clean, boat with comfortable seating and a toilet. We were early (in case we got lost) and they were ready and waiting for us and got us out quickly, which was great! We headed to Crab catchers right next door (Mike recommended) and they cooked up the bass we caught, which was awesome. Oh yea, and we saw a 10 ft great white shark swimming right next to the boat which was the highlight!! So keep your eyes peeled so you dont miss something awesome.

    Great time on the water

    Half Day Trip (Private) - 11:30 AM9 adults2 children

    After a not so great experience with another captain/boat last summer, I was a little nervous to book and BUT my family and I are so thankful we found this one. It appeared well maintained, clean, provided a bathroom and interior area to stay cool in. The fish were biting which is great and if they weren’t, the captain moved to another spot, the mate tended to our every needs. From ease of booking to return to port, we are satisfied. The captain’s communication was excellent as well. Zero complaints.
