We had an amazing trip!! We told them our goal was to catch big fish and we definitely did. Two Goliath Groupers (around 600lb and 400lb) and two sharks (around 8 ft and 6 ft). We also managed to catch a mess of fish to take home in between the big ones. I would 100% recommend booking this trip! The guys were a lot of fun, made sure everyone on the boat was having a good time and catching fish. It felt like we were out fishing with a couple of friends. They seemed like they were having as much fun as we were. Book this trip! You won’t regret it.

U could tell the captain really enjoyed fishing, and when they love it, you’re gonna love it.  We saw all types of fish.  We caught 2 sharks and one was an 8 ft’er.  My 9 yr old niece went and I think she outfished us all.  They was very good with her and she even helped reel in the smaller shark.  I would definitely recommend these guys bc they was awesome!

In Cape San Blas for a family vacation and wanted to fish. We took a 3/4 day trip and booked about a month in advance. From the very beginning, Captain Andy was the best. Very responsive and answered any questions pre trip. That didn’t change at all during the actual trip. Captain Andy and Dan were top notch. They were fun and knowledgeable and got us fish. We moved locations to get more fish and caught a huge Amber Jack…just not big enough to keep. We laughed and fished, talked and fished, then hung out and fished some more! When we got back to shore, they let us get pictures of our catch and cleaned them for us to bring home to eat. Beginning to end, best fishing trip we’ve been on.  I couldn’t recommend them enough.

We’ve done inshore charters but this was our first offshore. It was well worth the extra cost. We did trolling, bottom, and shark fishing.  It was a fantastic trip. I can’t tell you how many huge fish we hooked up on, but it was MORE THAN ENOUGH, including a 9’+ tiger shark. I never get tired of fishing, but even I had to take a break for a while, because we were exhausted from reeling in big fish. If you are looking for a fanatical fisherman that loves putting fish on your line, Andy is your guy.

The boat was very nice and stable. The Porta potty in the console is a nice amenity on a longer trip.  All of the fishing equipment was high quality and well maintained. Andy spared no expense on lures and bait. We could not have asked for more. They even cleaned the fish, which was nice after a long day.

My family had a great day with Andy and crew. You guys have our sincere appreciation. We’re already looking forward to our next trip with Chum Em Up.

Captain Andy was my all time favorite captain I’ve had for a fishing charter. You can tell he enjoys what he does. He’s really out there to get you some good fish. He’s very good at communicating beforehand as well to answer any questions you may have. We even stayed out fishing a little longer than we were scheduled which was awesome. Once when we got back they cleaned our fish up for us too.

Much appreciated!
