Great trip professional captain kept us in the fish and had hooks in a couple big jacks. Highly recommend.

We had a great time out on the water with Captain Bennett.  While it was a poor day for fishing by Bennett’s standards, Bennett took us around to his best spots doing everything he could to help us catch from fish.  We ended up catching a few including Mangrove Snapper, Spanish Mackerel, and surprisingly a bass!  In the downtime between bites he shared his knowledge on the fishing rods and reels he uses and recommends for those switching over to do more saltwater fishing.  I plan to take his advice and order a few before my next trip down.  I definitely plan to book with Canton Bay Charters the next time I am in the area.

Already set to go on my next trip with Canton Bay Charters and can’t wait to hook into some more with Captain Brantley!

Very impressed with Captain Bennett. He is professional, experienced, and knowledgeable about Mobile Bay and its surrounding waters. Although conditions were not optimal for throwing a fly (wind was blowing), Capt. Bennett was determined to put me on some fish. He quickly found a protected area where I was able to cast effectively and pull a handful of trout in the boat within an hour. After warming up, we eased into some grass flats where the skipper spotted a big redfish in casting distance right away. In addition to his local insight, Capt. Bennett is extremely helpful on deck—all I had to do was show up and fish, and he took care of the rest. Had great conversations and got plenty of tips and angling advice as well. Prime example of a proper charter captain.

First off he was more than accommodating. The fish early morning were not cooperating so we went into deeper water. We were on fish then and they didn’t stop. We caught mangrove snappers, a shark and a few other species. We decided to go back to look for slot reds. On our way back to Magnolia river, he spotted a triple tail under a crab trap bouy. We hooked up and that was my first triple tail. It was a great trip
