Fall & Winter Special - 5 Hour

It wasn’t the best day for fishing, but he did his best to get us on them. We caught a few fish 🐟, but what we didn’t catch in fish, we caught in good company and fun. I look forward to our next adventure. The deck hands were first class! Thank you Captain Ben, Tyler and Payton. We’ll be back!

We had a great experience with Captain Ben and his deckhand Tyler. They were very knowledgeable of the waters and where the fish would be. We caught some and some got away, overall the trip was what we wished for and we are looking forward to booking another trip in the near future.

Captain Ben makes you comfortable whether its your first Charter or you are an old pro. He’ll make sure you have a successful Charter experience. You may have to suffer through a few of his corny Jokes, but it is well worth it. We caught our limit of Black Tip Sharks and a whooper Redfish. Our group of five had a great time!
