My son and I spent a full day fishing with Captain Frank Cole targeting the silver tarpon.  Captain Frank is very knowledgeable of the area and knew where to find the tarpon.  Before we even made the trip, he told me that we would catch pogies for bait and chase the pogie bait pods where the tarpon were feeding and that is exactly what we did.  I bet my son and I saw over 35 tarpon that day rolling and jumping and chasing bait.  Some of them were huge.  We did get one “eater” that day but weren’t able to hookup or land that fish.  As they say, that’s why they call it fishing and not catching.  We learned a lot from Captain Frank about tarpon fishing and we appreciated the education since we had never fished for tarpon before.  As a side note, both my son and I did catch bonita and jack creval which we had never caught before.  Captain Frank spotted a school of bonita in our travels and was equipped to catch them so he gave us a little diversion.  We caught the jacks around the jetties on our way back in.  Captain Frank is a very knowledgeable fishing guide and you will have an awesome time if you pick him for your fishing trip.

My son loves outdoor activities, but I’m terrible at them. I was very nervous about doing a fishing excursion, but my wife and I knew it was was something he really wanted so I took him out for his birthday.  Frank was very positive and very good and explaining that was happening and how to do everything.  I was nervous about being made to feel stupid since I knew nothing about fishing, but you could tell that he really just wanted to share the sport that he loved and was happy to answer any questions..  He was very patient and explaining the techniques for reeling in the fish to my son and his friend.  We had a lot of fun, and I would definitely choose Recess Sport Fishing again.

We had a great time fishing with Capt. Frank, the wind gave us a run for our money. But overall Capt. Frank showed us a good time ans we caught a few fish!

This was a birthday gift for my oldest son. Capt Frank made the entire trip worth while. He explained everything from start to end. His boat is very clean and fully equipped for anything. He’s extremely knowledgeable and knows the waters. The ride back to the dock was everything when he paid respects to his family at sea. Very sentimental moment. Thank you Captain Frank and your son for a marvelous experience.

Captain Frank is an outstanding fisherman. He is very knowledgeable about his craft and he understands the area very well. He is a really genuine guy and I would recommend fishing with him. He helped me land the fish of my life and it was the species we were targeting so I am planning to charter with him in the near future. If you are looking for a captain that will teach you and put you on good fish, he is the man for the job!!
