Extremely seasoned and knowledgeable captain and first mate.ย Well maintained boat and equipment.
Beautiful day on the water! We caught a wahoo and a cuda. Captain Red and Donovan were great! Iโll be using them again next time Iโm in St John.
Captain Red and KJ were great! They explained where we were going via GPS unit, provided history of the islands, and gave us a wonderful experience! KJ managed the lines and was frequently tending to them to make sure we had some fish to go home with. The chop was a little rough in some spots so if you are prone to sea sickness be weary.
The boat has an on board restroom, sink and cooler. They provide you with water and Coors light or similar. We went in the morning and it was nice to still have the rest of the day to ourselves as we got back in about noon.
The black fin tuna was enough for lunch, dinner and more for 4 people. Captain red cleaned the fish for us and gave us a bag to carry it in. You also have the option of selling your fish on the dock or giving it to the crew.
I highly recommend this fishing excursion if you are looking for an experience with a local that is very laid back.
We also brought a portable speaker with us and weโre allowed to play our own music.

The boat and equipment on this boat is a 10 out of 5 stars. The boat is very clean and very equipped for all sorts of fish. Captain Red is an awesome and very personable guy! He knows his fishing very well and can tell some awesome stories! The mates were very nice guys, however they were inexperienced which is fine you have to start somewhere, both of them had been doing it for about 2 weeks which is why I give the crew a 4 stars. Captain Red did tell me on the phone prior to the booking of the trip for our honeymoon that fishing had been very slow. That being said we only caught 1 fish thus the 4 star on the overall. This however has nothing to do with Red as he can not control the fish contrary to some of the others review. I know for a fact that if I were going back down to St. Thomas for a fishing trip knowing the fish were biting, there would be no other person I would want guiding me on the trip! Maybe by that point the mates will be more experienced (it is hard to get experience in on a fishing boat when there are no fish biting). Thanks Red, and I hope our paths cross again someday!

I donโt think my review can do it justice.ย Captain Red put us on some fish, but this trip was filled with so much more.ย There is something to be said for someone that has 50 years in on the water.ย The conversation and insight were worth the price of the charter alone.ย Top that off with wahoo on the line and the trip was perfect.ย Captain Red has what so many lack in todayโs day and age, character. Heart and character for days.ย We canโt recommend him enough, truly the best the island has to offer!
