  Great Day with a Great Captain.

  4 Hour Trip – Inshore on August 28, 2026 • 5 adults • 2 children

  Captain Andrew runs a top tier charter and was completely professional from start to finish. Before leaving the dock, he asked which species we wanted to target, and every single spot he brought us to produced results. We had nonstop action all day, landing plenty of snapper, redfish, grouper, fluke, snook, and one absolute mystery monster that got away after an incredible fight. Andrew was fantastic with the kids, constantly baiting hooks, casting, and making sure a line was never idle. When bad weather rolled in, his local knowledge kept us safe as he tucked the boat under a nearby bridge where we immediately hooked two massive groupers and more snapper. The boat was spotless, the gear was high quality, and between the snapper and two huge redfish, our family ate fresh catch for the rest of our Anna Maria Island vacation. It was worth every single penny and we will definitely book with Andrew again.

  We had the best time with Captain Drew! He was so knowledgeable & made sure we had as many opportunities as possible to catch as many fish as possible! We brought home some wonderful sea trout for our dinner which be cleaned for us as well! Would definitely recommend and go back out with him again!

  FISH ON!!!

  4 Hour Trip – Inshore - 8:00 AM on April 6, 2026 • 6 adults

  I recently booked a fishing trip with this young entrepreneur, and I couldn’t be more impressed. From start to finish, the service was top-notch. He’s clearly passionate about fishing and knows his stuff inside and out. What stood out most was how professional, smart, and talented he is. Andrew runs his business like a seasoned pro — great communication beforehand, punctual, well-organized, and incredibly knowledgeable about the local waters, techniques, and fish behavior. He made sure we had an amazing day on the water, adapting to conditions and putting us on fish consistently. If you’re looking for a reliable, talented, and genuinely great fishing guide who takes pride in what he does, look no further. This young go-getter is the real deal. I’ll definitely be booking with him again next time I’m in town!

  Great guide!

  4 Hour Trip – Inshore on April 20, 2026 • 6 adults • 3 children

  Andrew was awesome. I manage a fishing lodge in the rocky mtn west and understand the industry, and Andrew was what you want in a guide, personal, no nonsense AND “lets catch a fish” attitude. He was perfect for our group of 6 ppl (3kids) and was amazing with everyone! I hope he takes me up on my invite to hunt/fish out west, would repay the hospitality any day. Hes definitely worth the time to book!!

  what an awesome day today with Captain Andrew!

  6 hour trip tarpon on May 11, 2026 • 4 adults

  We had a fantastic time with Captain Andrew today! Put us on some awesome fish! Answered all of our stupid questions! Literally spent the entire day hustling to make sure our trip went perfectly. Super experienced and the day went exactly as he told us it was going to. Highly recommend and I’m looking forward to the next time my crew gets the opportunity to fish from his boat!
