I had never been fishing before and our captain Josh made me feel very comfortable while allowing me to ‘learn by doing’ so I could experience the feel of the line and reel. We tried a few different spots in and around the bay and finally hit a really good one where I caught a few trout and a big redfish! He helped me with baiting and casting, but expected me to do the rest, and it was great! My husband has fished many times before and didn’t need the same kind of help and he too had a great experience. The boat was perfect for the kind of fishing we were doing and I felt like I was safe and could manage myself. It was a fantastic experience in a beautiful setting and we caught enough fish for several meals. Josh filleted them for us at the dock. I highly recommend!

Captain Josh was awesome. This trip was for my father’s birthday. In Feb I booked with another company for Sat Apr 19. On Apr 15 that captain cancelled on me. I was lucky enough to find availability with Beast Coast. I’m so glad that happened because we had a phenomenal experience with Captain Josh. He was friendly, professional, informative, and great with our two boys, 6 and 9. He was so patient with them. Really took the time & effort to explain & show them what & how to do everything. He gave them extra support while still being attentive and giving support to the birthday boy, and my wife & I. He was so busy, literally never stopped, and we were all consistently lines in the water, getting baited, or reeling in fish. Captain Josh was right there to assist and support throughout. Boat and equipment were all top notch. Would definitely recommend and book again.

We made a last minute decision to do a 2 hour charter. 6 of us went, 4 fished and everyone caught some fish. Our captain was full of tidbits of the area, water and fish. Great day out on the water and we will definitely book another trip that is longer for next time!

The bite was slow but Josh worked hard to make sure he put our boys on some fish and that meant a lot! Still managed to get some big snooks in the boat as well as a few grouper. Will book again for sure.

Josh was an awesome captain! Despite the warm water we still got a handful of fish and even caught a redfish to take home for dinner. Great time and I will definitely charter with best coast again
