Captain Nate was very communicative and flexible leading up to trip. Took a couple kiddos out shark fishing. While waiting for sharks, we were able to fish off the side of the boat for smaller fish. We caught one shark on a day where other boats weren’t getting a bite. Did some bonus trolling on the way in to catch a mackerel and few other fish. Wouldn’t hesitate to book again. Thanks!

My wife and I booked our son a 4-hour coastal charter with Captain Nathan of Checkmate Charters for his 13th birthday.  Our only request was to try and catch a hammerhead shark.  We were not disappointed!  Not only did our son get a hammerhead on his first catch but we caught THREE hammerhead sharks in total, in addition to several Spanish Mackerel.  We had an absolute blast and Captain Nathan was incredibly knowledgeable and a joy to fish with.  I’d highly recommend the Coastal Fishing...

Our family of four had a great time! Captain Nathan was super friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. The sharks were biting but no catches on our cruise unfortunately. But we made up for it with multiple mackerel and bluefish catches which were a ton of fun to reel in. The kids and parents had a blast. Would 100% recommend!!!
