We had a brillant time with Papa Bear Charters; fishing for what we wanted to fish for. The Captain, Rudy, can find fish of all sizes and types   We fished a day charter and a night trip on our week in Palm Beaches. We caught Snapper, King, yellow rail, and capped it off with a big boy Lemon Shark of approximately 300.lbs. Night fishing was a real treat with the sunset and the shoreline all lit up after dark.
The crew is excellent and accommodating. Highly recommended.

Rudy and Mike were fantastic. Weather wasn’t cooperating for a Dolphin run, but they gave us a day to remember on the inter coastal as we made the best of we could with what Mother Nature gave us to work with. I would absolutely recommend Papa Bears, and can’t wait to come back out with Rudy on our next trip!

Captain rudy and his son mike are amazing people and really know their way around their boat. My son and I Went on the 6 hr trip today **hidden content** and had the most amazing time the seas were a bit rough but we caught plenty of fish and even hooked into a shark (compleatly on accident) we saw porpoises and a giant green sea turtle. Was an awesome time and if i get back down here from Michigan I intend to book with them again. 10 of 10 guys thank you again.

We had an awesome morning 4 hour fishing trip with Rudy and Adam! They were both great, very friendly and welcoming. Rudy took us to several great spots to try and catch the fish biting. He Adam set up and baited all the lines, showed us the ropes, and helped us hook a few! The wind was blowing well enough to fly the kite, which was very cool. We didn’t bag a big fish, but we had a great time, would definitely go out with them again!

Rudy and Mike were friendly, kind, helpful, and had great knowledge. I finally was able to make this trip happen with the help and flexibility of Capt. Rudy. I had booked a trip in March just before the pandemic shut us completely down, so Christmas came around, and I was able to rebook.

The trip as a whole was terrific. Rudy was a great communicator from start to finish. His expertise was helpful and guiding without ever feeling like I had no idea what I was doing. We hooked and fought many fish during our 4 hours. It was also the most beautiful weather on a Florida winter day to be out in the boat. We did get sharked a couple of times, but it was a fun day on the water. I would recommend Capt. Rudy and “Papa Bear’s Fishing Charter” to anyone looking for a fun and affordable experience on the beautiful blue waters of sunny South Florida.
