To anyone looking to book a charter, I highly recommend Captain Tony Battista of Saltwater Adventures LLC for an inshore or offshore charter. By far the most personable and knowledgeable captains we have ever had. With all of the heavy rains and low water clarity, the flounder bite was very finicky. He managed to put my 9 year old son onto a sea monster of a stingray approximately 7 ft wide guesstimated around 100 lbs. The flounder setup, rod and reel combo with 15 lb braided line held up while he guided him through an hour and 2 minute fight until my son couldnโt reel anymore. When I took the rod from him it broke the line at the boat when I tried to horse it to the surface for a second time. My family was very happy we chose Saltwater Adventures LLC and canโt wait for a trip next year. Thanks again Captain Tony!!!!

Thank you for the kind words. I look forward to fishing with you again next year.
Captain Tony was phenomenal, and sought to get us exactly what we came to catch! We wanted to catch Mahi-Mahi so badly, and luckily the water conditions were great and he took us out further and found us some Mahi to catch! The restaurant, Fish Tales, right off the pier will cook your fish for you too- either fried or blacked, and it was awesome. We also caught flounder, and Captain gave us a recipe to prepare it! This was a great charter all-in-all and we would def book again with Saltwater Adventure!
Booked the trip two weeks in advance for the day with the best forecast.ย Unfortunately, as the date approached, the forecast changed, so Captain Tony contacted me and we changed the date.ย Ended up with perfect weather , calm seas, and great fishing, including two keeper flounder.ย I have been trying to add pictures to the review, but the website keeps rejecting them.ย Great boat, great captain, and great fishing for my 10 year old son and I.ย Will be back again next year.
Thank you, Iโm glad you enjoyed your trip.
We booked during a week of rough weather and high chances of bigger seas. Captain Tony was very up front about the situation but did not cancel incase the weather cleared. We were fortunate enough to get out in the morning and get some quality time at the wreck site. He refused to let us go home empty handed and we ended up with a 4 or 5 fish and 2 we were able to keep and eat at Fish Tales. Thanks for a great day out and the fish and chips were worth the effort!
Thank you. Iโm glad you enjoyed the fresh flounder for lunch.
Captain Tony is a friendly, very skilled, and honest man. He gave us the opportunity to opt out because the water conditions were not ideal. Because it was our only day of our vacation available, we chose to give it a shot. Since the captain is very familiar and understands the fishโs habits, he was able to put us onto some good flounder drifts and made it a great trip for all of my family. Thank you for a fantastic and fun time on the water!
Iโm glad you enjoyed your trip. Thank you for booking with me.
