My son and I enjoyed a great day on the water with Captain Joe and first mate Joe. They were a lot of fun to hang out with and very knowledgeable. They worked hard with a rainy forecast to put us on some fish. I’ve been out with many guides and Joe is way up there. Thanks for a great trip.

I planned a vacation to Florida by myself for the first time and wanted to go fishing. I was a bit nervous about doing a charter alone, but just went ahead and booked it. I had THE best day on the water ever. Joe made me feel so comfortable. We just started fishing and talking-we hit it off like we were old friends who hadn’t seen each other in awhile. By the end of the trip,we were just old new friends. If you’re considering anyone else, just go with Joe. He knows where to go on the water to get the right fish, actually catches his own live bait and doesn’t buy it like some others do, and you get a whole fishing experience. I will definitely book with him again the next time I come for a visit.

I’m an avid fisherman and have been on numerous chartered fishing trips when on family vacations. We made a late decision and found Joe had an available slot on the following day of booking this trip. I didn’t know what to expect with making a quick decision on zero research. I can say that Joe worked harder than any captain I’ve experienced. He could’ve easily took the easy route and got out of the wind/waves and make life easier on himself. But he didn’t. He worked his tail off, without hesitation, for me and my family to keep us on fish despite less than average conditions. We had storms in the area and he ran through a lot of gas to try to dodge storms and keep us fishing. He fought boat position nonstop and kept us right where we needed to be. We had an absolute blast and the snook bite was constant. We ended up with 15+ snook and most were 20”+. I was extremely impressed with this young captain and will book him again in the future. We had ages from 12-70 on this charter and Joe made sure each of us were comfortable and well taken care of. Great trip, great captain!

Captain Joe was great. Very personable and easy to talk to. I chose him because of the great reviews he had. He was especially great with my daughter (7yrs old). I was worried she’d be bored but he knew how to keep her entertained fishing or helping him the entire time. Afterwards she was asking when we can do it again. We were worried about the weather but got lucky. We started on some Snook right away and there were times we were all on fish at the same time (4 of us). Later we moved to another area with Trout and Jack. All in all, it was a fun day. I plan to do this again.
