If you’re looking for a variety of fish, then this charter’s for you. We expected to catch bigger fish. Didn’t realize most of the fish we wanted to keep were out off season since the website mentioned a large variety of fish.
We had a good time. Caught meny fish, but was hoping for larger fish. Before you book, I would talk to the captain to make sure the species you’re targeting for is in season.

First let me say that this charter IS NOT OUT OF TAMPA. The listing is incorrect. It is out of RUSKIN, FL.
We did not realize this until the day before our trip. We were staying in Clearwater Beach and after connecting with Dustin, coordinated a later trip due to the 1+hr drive from Clearwater Beach to Ruskin.
Despite that, the trip was FABULOUS!
Seth was our captain and did a wonderful job at keeping our family of 5 engaged and fishing throughout our 4 hours on the water. Everyone caught fish and we ended up keeping 4 for dinner. Our trip afforded us a beautiful day on the water, moving to 3 fishing locations and seeing 8 different species of fish, dolphins and a manatee! Seth was very informative about the area and generous in sharing his fishing skills. Our last fish was a 26” Redfish caught by our 12yo daughter who needed help reeling it in. Seth helped her with the rod and ultimately jumped in the water to net that big boy! Thanks Seth for a great day and being YOU!

Couldn’t have asked for a better trip!! We took our three children 11,12,15 we had requested that they were able to catch a couple of fish in the ocean. Captain Dustin had them hooking fish with in a minute of baiting the lines and the bait hitting the water. They pulled fish after fish for four straight hours. The boat was spotless and the rods and tackle couldn’t have been better. Above all that was Captain Dustin’s personality which you can’t teach either you have it or you don’t and Captain Dustin has it. Was great with us and excellent with our children. If your looking for a great experience look no further!!
Thanks Captain Dustin from the Zona family when we are back in Florida we will be back on your boat!!

Started at 1pm and motored out toward the shipping lanes. Captain Jake put us on the bite so good- even they bent their poles too! They knew where the fish were…. they had more than enough supplies. Great personalities too- they helped us make a great and memorable time. We topped off the night where one of our guys got to fight and haul in a shark as the sun was setting. Took an hour long fight! Thanks for a great time!
