Valerie Hizzy4.7VerifiedGreat Day for a Quick Trip!
3 hour Quick River Fishing Trip • 3 adults • 1 childWe booked a quick 3-hour afternoon fishing trip out of New Smyrna Beach to see how our 10-year-old daughter would do on the water before committing to a longer charter. We wanted to test how she'd handle the heat, whether she'd get bored, and if fishing was something she'd really enjoy. We packed plenty of snacks and extra water, which was definitely a good idea since it was a hot noon trip. Despite the heat, we had an amazing time! The highlight of the trip was our daughter catching more fish than anyone else on the boat. The captain was friendly, helpful, and made the experience enjoyable for everyone. The short trip turned out to be the perfect introduction, and now we know we'll be booking a longer trip next time. We highly recommend this charter and captain for families, especially if you're introducing kids to offshore fishing.
