I booked this trip for a Fatherโs Day present, and Captain Cole didnโt disappoint. From the communication prior to the trip all the way until our party disembarked from his boat, the river fishing, equipment and weatherโฆ.we couldnโt have asked for a better experience. He is knowledgeable, and took time to explain and teach our 10 year about fishing. We 100% recommended this fishing charter and look forward to our next trip.
Over the course of a weeks time we had the pleasure of fishing with these guys. We caught fish every trip and and had multiple inshore slams and grand slams.ย These guys now how to put you on the best fishing action in their area.ย Boats and equipment are top shelf and they know where the bait is, so you you spend more time fishing.ย Nothing beats pulling a big snook out of the mangroves.ย Highly recommend them.ย Looking forward to returning soon.
My wife, and 2 adult sons, booked the 4 hour afternoon fishing charter with Southern Mayhem Fishing Charters.ย We cannot say enough good things about Captain Cole.ย He was extremely professional, knowledgeable, responsive, helpful, informative, and polite!ย He made us feel so welcomed and comfortable, even though we kept him busy baiting our hooks, untangling our lines, etc!ย We were rewarded with an exciting afternoon of catching fishโฆjust two shy of our limit!ย And, after we docked, he filleted them for us. We had an awesome fresh fish dinner of mangrove snapper the following night. We would highly recommend Southern Mayhem, and Captain Cole!ย Canโt wait to fish with him again!

I have charter fished in many places around the world, at 68 years old there isnโt much I have not seen. This young man is without question the finest captain i have EVER experienced. While getting to know Cole during the trip we shared many stories. Turns out Cole has finished 3 years of college and was pursuing a law degree as a corporate attorney. His passion for fishing however drove him to sit with his dad and tell him โdad I want to start a charter businessโ. Dad said โgo for itโ great kid/GREAT parents. So here are indicators that will help you decide if Cole should be your choice.#1 live bait ,#2 does he sit in one spot or work to find the fish? he works #3 this is a BIG indicator, does he decide at the halfway point to look for fish that happen to be in the direction of the dock? (captains save gas by heading back) Cole kept heading AWAY #4 does he change baits and tactics during trip? Well i could go on and on. The bottom line here is that this young man HAS IT. Polite ,hard working, kind ,patient and flat out a quality person. I cannot say more than this Cole is passionate about his work. Greg Skelly Oak Lawn Ill

Live shrimp bait was not available so Cole caught bait for us with a throw net. Fishing was a little slow without the live shrimp, but Cole got us onto fish with the greens, red threads, and frozen shrimp. We caught Mangrove Snappers, Pins, Whiting, and โKittiesโ. We also saw a lot of dolphins. Cole is a very personable guy and really knows his stuff when it comes to fishing. He was very helpful with my daughters that are not seasoned when it comes to fishing. One of them ended up catching the most fish and the other got the first and biggest one. It ended up being a most memorable Fatherโs Day gift from my two daughters and son!
