Captain and boat were fine but the entire experience was just so so. Would probably try other charters next time.
Capt Billy read the wind and changed our venue from Ormond to Port Orange. We met at the dock and headed out among the creeks near the Inlet. His instincts as a fisherman and his ability to “read the fish” resulted in each of us three catching our dinner for the evening. Redfish ranging from 24lbs to 26 lbs. We even hooked a lemon shark that our little one helped land. Then he took us to a different spot where we caught a full range of fish. Sheepshead, bluefish, catfish, black drum… we had a great time, and Capt Billy kept us entertained with stories, fishing advice, humor, and superstition.
Capt Billy was an amazing guide, we would book with him again in a heartbeat.

It was a good day
My kids and I had an Amazing time! Billy was very knowledgeable and entertaining! We caught red fish, sheep head, blue fish, sharks, a stingray, pompano, catfish, and a stone crab! We also saw dolphins, jellyfish, cool birds and jumping fish! Such an exciting and memorable trip for my kids and I. And at the end of the day, he cleaned our catch and gave me ideas of how to cook them. Our experience exceeded my expectations and if you want to have a good time, see some wildlife and catch lots of fish, I would definitely recommend taking a trip with Captain Billy Pettigrew!

Great time laughing and catching a little bit of everything.
My sons and I fished with Capt. Billy. All they talked about for the hour and a half car ride to the hotel was how much fun they had fishing. Capt. Billy is a master fisherman. He knows the water, fish. current, tide, water temperature, cloud cover and how those factors push fish to different areas. We were one fish away from a slam. On a personal note Capt. Billy for my sons and I was an ‘uncle’ we hadn’t met. We are going to fish Kona this July. However, there is no doubt in my mind that we will be talking about Capt Billy’s Wahoo. My sons and I will be flying across the Country to fish with Capt. Billy. He is without reservation the hardest working Captain We have ever fished with, the places we went to slay them no other Captain would go. Which is why we saw no other boats all day and all the fish were ours. If you fish Port Orange without Capt Billy then you are not a passionate dedicated lip ripper.

I am looking forward to guys coming back. It was a great time on the water with you and the boys.
Took my father and 2 boys out this morning w Captain Billy. The morning started out hot but like most catching it turned to fishing after a while. Captain Billy put us on the fish in several locations and we had fun. We missed several but we took enough home to enjoy. My boys have went on about how much fun they had and ill certainly book again!
W.I.N.D & R.A.I.N…..... We don’t talk about that on the boat. lol
