  great captain and first mate

  Half Day Trip on June 8, 2026 • 4 adults

  Thanks Mike and jordan for the trip of memories, two kids landed their first mahi and that is something they will never forget! , thanks for recommending the live bait , it is extra but well worth it, increases odds of landing fish. they were very professional , and patient with some fishing rookies , thanks guys. will definitely recommend this team

  Amazing Trip with Capt. Mike!!

  3/4 Day Trip on April 13, 2025 • 5 adults • 1 child

  First time going with the whole family and Capt. Mike just did an amazing job. He was early and met with us offering to help with our stuff. He was knowledgeable, funny, and overall a really cool person. Everyone felt comfortable with him in less than 10 min (even my shy 12 ye old brother). We caught a good amount of fishes and saw some cool sharks and sailfishes along the ride. Was a windy day but he really went above and beyond showing us how to handle the rods and teach us about the tricks to find fishes. Would 100% recommend him to anyone looking for a good time. I know my family would book again. Thanks Capt. Mike!!

  Great memories made!

  3/4 Day Trip on January 2, 2024 • 4 adults

  Recently, we embarked on an offshore fishing charter with Hooklesslure that exceeded all of our expectations. The experienced and knowledgeable captain, along with the first mate, ensured a seamless and enjoyable trip. The spacious and well-equipped boat added to the overall comfort, making it a perfect setting for a memorable fishing experience for our group. The captain and crew's responsiveness and attentiveness to our needs showcased their dedication to customer satisfaction, and we didn’t go empty-handed (our catch made for the best fish tacos). The trip was not just about fishing; it was an excellent blend of great fun and engaging conversations. The positive vibe throughout the excursion made it an unforgettable adventure. I highly recommend this charter for a fantastic offshore fishing experience.

  Who needs a hook with Hooklesslure

  3/4 Day Trip on June 22, 2024 • 5 adults

  Absolutely awesome 3/4 day with Captain Mike & Mate Johnny. From the moment we arrived they greeted me, my sons & nephews with enthusiasm & helped us unload from the parking lot to to the boat. Ontime push off from the dock & connect for live bait on the way out of the inlet. Don’t believe NOAA forecasts will always ahead accurate… those were not 2-3 ft seas… but Capt. Mike & Johnny kept an eye on everyone and kept us all engaged. Boated as many as we fought & lost-Blackfin, Mahi & King… and of. Course the Cobia at the boat… that one still hurts. Would definitely do it again with HooklessLure next time I plan a getaway with the boys.
