I can’t say enough good things about captain Billy and our fishing trip!  I’m an avid fisherman and my two boys (2 and 4 years old) are both getting to the age where they also want to participate but still need a lot of oversight.  Our trip with Captain Billy (and his grandson Justin) was the perfect first charter for our boys.  It was a pleasant ride to our fishing spot, where we saw alligators, birds, and tarpon rolling. When we got to the spot we were fishing, it was a constant bite. ... More

The telltale sign of a great time is when your children ask repeated to go again immediately after the experience which mine have done for two days straight now. Captain Billy and first mate Justin were calm, cool, and collected. Their demeanor was perfect for little kids. My sons (6 and 4) listened to their instructions and caught a ton of fish.

We did two trips with Billy because we LOVED the first trip soooo much! He taught my daughter to cast and she loves it! He took us shelling and we got to see dolphins, manatees and even got to touch some horseshoe crabs! So fun we booked the whole day and could have done some more! Billy fished with my daughter while I got a nice break in the shade on the boat and got to take pictures. He is absolutely amazing and full service! He is not just a guy driving a boat for you. This trip is addicting!... More

This was the perfect length trip for kids.  Captain Bill and his first mate Justin were extremely patient and helpful with the everything . They were very knowledgeable about the area and the fishing. All 3 kids had a blast which can definitely be a challenge with a 10,7 and 3 year old. We caught lots of fish red snapper, catfish, and even a Goliath Grouper . Very personable and good at communicating. Highly recommend for a great fishing trip.

We had a fantastic fishing and shelling trip with Captain Billy! He and his first mate were knowledgeable, friendly, prompt, and extremely accommodating. They made the entire experience smooth and enjoyable, especially for our 3-year-old daughter. They went out of their way to show her the fun of fishing, helping her catch fish and pointing out all kinds of wildlife along the way. We caught a bunch of fish, found some amazing sea shells, and made memories that we’ll treasure. I highly recommend... More
