caught a lot of fish, had a blast crew and captain are very experienced.

Did not catch a lot of fish overall on boat.  Several spots we went were busts.  Confirm departure time because app said 7am but got I a call at 6:30 saying they were supposed to leave at 6am. Nice to have bathrooms and AC on boat.

This night was incredible.  For me, the fishing could have been better… but there were lots of fish caught on the boat.  I did better the first half with 2 hook & bottom weight rig but after a dolphin took that off I was re-set with a single hook & top weight.  I didn’t seem to get the bites as much then. 

Let me say this.  The trip would have been worth it with no fish or fishing at all.  The group was having a great time, the night weather was beautiful.  Watching the dolphins chase flying fish in the light of the boat was simply amazing for a guy from IL. 

Boat & gear was all terrific.  Crew was very helpful.  I fish a lot anyway so seeing others catch fish was a blast.  The deck hands, especially Dyson were awesome with the kids & helped them make some life long thrill catches. 

I have enjoyed multiple charters over the years, and for the $ this one ranks right up there.

I can see myself using Family Traditions again when I visit FL & would recommend their charters to others.

Thanks again guys!

We had an amazing time! The captain was super friendly and found us several fishing locations were we caught lots of fish. Best part was the Deckhand Dyson!!! This Guy had us rolling laughing from the start! On top of that he made sure we had plenty of help with learning how to deep sea fish and best ways to get fish on the line. He was quick at getting the fish off and amazing at educating about the different types of fish. Best yet he made sure we had fun!!!! Will definitely be back soon! Definitely recommend 110%
