Justin Gay

Member since July 2022 Vero Beach, United States

Background: Captain Justin grew up fishing the beautiful waters of Vero Beach, Sebastian, and Ft. Pierce. He’s lived in Vero Beach his entire life. His passion for fishing came from his father and uncle who taught him all about fishing in any body of water from as early as 4 years old. They have since passed and he is proud to carry on the love of fishing. He's spent the majority of his life with a fishing pole in his hands. He feels after each trip you're not a customer, but a friend. Seeing the smiles on each person's face as they reel in their catch brings him joy.
Techniques: Captain Justin fishes with every method needed to get you hooked up.

Half Day Offshore

Only 15 minutes in and we caught our first fish. Captain Justin and Jarrett were very knowledgeable and funny so it was a great trip. We caught so much (mahi, cobia and king fish) that we ended up having a bunch of neighbors over for a dinner party just to put a dent into it. We will only go out with Bottoms Up now…you should too.

Great charter

Justin and his crew were fantastic. This was my teenage son’s first charter trip, and we had a blast. We put 4 kingfish over 30 lbs in the boat, plus a fantastic mahi that literally fed my family of five this evening for dinner. The gear was perfect, the bite was hot, and the crew was knowledgeable. I highly recommend this charter if you’re looking to catch fish and have a good time.

On the fish early, action of kings and mahi. The crew was very chill with the inexperienced. Great time! Justin and Jarred worked hard thank you. The Irish chum worked well!

Justin and Jordan were fantastic! They knew exactly where to fish and had the right equipment and bait. We easily caught 80+ fish, and 15 different species. I highly recommend them for a fun day on the water.
