Our trip with Captain Monty was nothing other than perfect! Even with his first mate out, Captain Monty was still able to single-handedly manage our trip with ease. Captain Monty’s expertise and accommodations ensures an enjoyable experience for all passengers. He is great at instructing and assisting less-experienced passengers while also keeping the more experienced anglers engaged and entertained. Captain Monty provided onboard accommodations and refreshments to keep all passengers comfortable. Once we brought our haul back to land, Captain Monty cleaned, filleted, and packed up our fish for us and gave us some of his personal recommendations for recipes and things to do while visiting. Overall, Captain Monty made this trip one that my family will cherish forever. We wouldn’t have changed a thing about it, and we will definitely be booking with Captain Monty again for future trips.

We couldn’t have asked for a better fishing trip! The weather was gorgeous. Captain Monty and Matt were so personable and fun. The tunes were jamming! When I booked the trip, I asked for an adventure for my kids and they totally delivered. The kids were pulling in fish as soon as the lines hit the water. Captain Monty knew exactly where the fish were and how to get them. They were also so patient and positive with my kids. They even took the time to teach my 15 year old son the ins and outs of the process so he could learn to do it on his own later. We had such success catching Spanish Mackerel that we tried for something bigger to wrap up our trip. Again, delivered BIG time!!! They knew exactly were to look for the barracuda and how to hook one. A memory my husband and kids will never forget!!

This review is for a 1/2 day fishing trip with Captain Big Fish.  Amazing is all I can say!  Trip was on 8/28/2022 from 7am till noon.  The boat is an awesome 30 ft Grady-White center console that is designed for one thing-catching fish! And catch fish is what we did…… somewhere between 80 and 100 Spanish Mackerel for the day!  My 12 year old son was with us and we were winding fish in almost constantly…….we actually got tired of winding!  Captain Monty Childers was great to work with…..he and Matt the mate were enthusiastic and very knowledgeable about fishing and made it a fun fishing trip!  There were cold drinks on ice and fun music to fish to!  They were very patient with my son and it was a very positive family fun trip.  Captain Monty does a great job cleaning the fish.  I can’t say enough good things……do yourself a favor an book a trip with Captain Big Fish!!!

I can’t give enough stars to rate the experience we had with Big Fish and if you choose this Charter you won’t regret it!!!
To start we met Captain Monty and Matt and knew from first impression it was going to be a good day and felt like we had been friends for years just meeting up to go fishing.
They kept us on the fish all day and when I mean on the fish we weren’t just catching one here one there at times all four of us were reeling one in yelling fish on and laughing our heads off!
Sometimes you go fishing and have some luck and not a good time but I can promise if you go with this Charter you will most definitely have a good time and hopefully not be “fishing” but “CATCHING” and there’s no doubt they will put you on the fish!!!

Monty and Matt thanks for some of the best memories I’ve shared with my dad and boys that we will never forget and look forward to the next trip we can take with ya!! Fair Seas Good Luck and FISH ON!!!

I’ve never been on a fishing charter where we caught as many fish as we did with Monty and Captain Big Fish! He was an awesome Captain who spent a lot of time making sure our whole crew was having fun and catching a ton of fish. His boat and equipment were immaculately clean and in great condition. He went out of his way to capture photos of us throughout the trip and share them with us afterward, a few of which I shared in this post. A real pleasure to fish with and am looking forward to taking another trip with Monty in the future…
