Captain Sam had us on fish in the first cast. A nice upper slot redfish. We were catching fish all morning. Reds, snook and trout. Captain Sam is a wealth of knowledge. We thoroughly enjoyed our trip.
Had a great time with Captain Sam on the PM half-day charter. He was a great instructor and informative guide. We caught a variety of species and had an awesome time. Highly recommend.
I bought this trip for a birthday gift for my husband. He caught a TON of fish. I had a great time watching him. He was so excited!!!! Highly recommend Captain Samuel!!!
The weather was not ideal for fishing. Captain Mike still put me on fish despite the rain, water temp & winds. Would definitely recommend this captain! Thanks captain Mike
Boat has no T-top, trolling motor or power pole. The only bait supplied was purchased small shrimp which resulted in fish too small to keep. If Captain Sam actually knew how to fish half as much as he claimed, we would’ve come home with at least one fish in the boat. My father and boyfriend, both seasoned fishermen, were looking forward to a day on the water catching fish. As it turned out, Captain Sam continued to instruct both of them on how to fish when he himself caught nothing. We spent the morning listening to his cocky fabricated stories. To be honest, I feel bad about writing such a poor review on someone’s livelihood but we were so disappointed and perhaps this review will prevent another family from the same.

With all respect I knew this review was coming before we went just from phone interactions. I suggested we catch 50 60 lb black drum or sharks which is what’s around and and y’all insisted on hunting meat fish (trout) which is why we used shrimp. This isn’t a menu out here. Fish don’t bite when you ask them to. We tried everything and I specifically warned you the fishing was bad for what y’all Wanted but you guys are “seasoned fisherman”. We had bad winds, rain, tides, moon and 90 degree water. We caught more fish than most guides I spoke with that day. Your 80 year old father caught 10-15 trout and some jacks that happened to be too small. With all respect yall Couldnt follow directions and your father did which is why he caught 90% of the fish snd had a great time. We probably caught 25 trout and one was big enough . Yes my job was to give you instructions on what to do… that’s why you hired me. We lost a lot of good fish and We caught fish on a terrible day but you wanted to go catching for specific ones. No there isn’t a t top as it’s a fishing boat, and Yes I have a wang stick pole for the back but we fished in 12 foot so we didn’t use it. I even offered you a discount on a future trip Since the bite was tough. That afternoon I had 9 Year olds and we killed it as First timers who listened to my suggestions. I take pride in these charters and there is a reason I have 2 bad reviews out of 170. Y’all feel differently than most, but if it’s about meat more than the experience I suggest a fish market. You will always have a better haul.
