Went for a afternoon trip last minute.  As soon as we got past the Cape Florida lighthouse Captain Chris turned on the radar looking for birds.  Spotted a few marks on the radar and quickly headed for the birds.  Maybe 5 minutes later there were birds and tuna everywhere.  As soon as we got close we tied a few ballyhoo on and got a double hookup within a minute.  For the rest of the day the bite was crazy!  Chris kept switching out the lures so that the tuna would spook.  Get a double or triple hookup spend 10-15 minutes getting them to the boat then look for the birds and get back in the bite.  Im from the west cost and kept asking Chris if this was normal and he kept laughing. We headed in only after we were too tired to catch anything more.  The boat and gear is supper clean and the experience was top notch.  If you have time I would definately recommend.

Captain Chris was awesome! He was incredibly determined to put us on fish, and succeeded.

It’s not often that I have the pleasure of writing a nice review but this one more than warrants it. For starters I’m 62 years old soon and had not been spearfishing in close to 25 years. I was looking for a charter captain who would take the time to allow me to ease back in without pushing the boundaries. I met up with Captain Chris “Lippy” early morning at his slip. His boat and gear were immaculate to say the least. Chris spent close to an hour going over my wish list and the safety issues related to our dive. On our wish list was Grouper and hog fish. On our first dive we chose a spot on the first reef at about 30-35’ and within my first few drops I had my first 24” Red Grouper for the day. After a few hours it was time to go look for the Hogs. Captain Chris took me to his Hog fish spot and just like the grouper spot, I had my first 18” hog within my first few dives. I have never felt safer before as I did with Captain Chris. He was my dive buddy for the day and every time I turned around he was there covering my back. I watched him dive and and realized how much I did not know. He took the time to teach me throughout the day what I never learned in decades before. Chris is one of those guys who stays down longer than I could ever dream of and seems to transform
Into a fish when he hits bottom. I can’t say enough good things about this trip and my great experience with Captain Chris. I am now waiting for the weather to clear and have an offshore fishing trip planned with him. Locals rave about his skills putting fish in the boat with rod and reel. If he’s as good with a rod as he is diving then we’re headed for another epic trip.

Captain Chris knew that offshore conditions were not ideal due to the wind and tides so he took us day fishing in his childhood secret spot. We had a great day fishing numerous species. Black grouper, mutton , vermillion and mangrove snappers, and trigger fish. A good amount were keepers. Even saw a ray fully breech out of the water. His spot was productive and fun in a location that I thought was going to be overfished due to its location. Turns out it is greatly overlooked! Highly recommended due to his long time local knowledge

Captain Chris put us on the fish.  A big fish.  This one spat the hook after a brief fight.  I can’t believe my wife got this shot after she botched our jumping tarpon photoshoot!  Great boat and crew; we definitely recommend a full day with Captain Chris and co.  We will be back.
