I and two of my brothers stepped onto Captain Bob’s boat having never done any sea-fishing before and had an experience none of us will ever forget—getting to fight with a massive ray on the end of the line, and although it ended in heartbreak as the ray snapped the line close to the boat after about thirty minutes, it was an incredible first fish. The mackerel fishing afterward was just gravy, they were coming in ones and twos and eventually had all the rods lighting up at the same time.

Captain Bob and First Mate E. were courteous, easy-going, and great to banter with. The boat was well-equipped and stocked, and the large overhead canopy was a godsend in the 95-degree full-sun.

Will definitely be coming back for more when I can.

Captain Bob and E were both amazing and super friendly! The boat was very clean and well maintained. We ended up catching 61 fish 3 of which were bluefish, and the rest were Spanish mackerel. Even though we didn’t catch anything big, everyone in our group had a blast! The only thing I would advise is to check water conditions before your trip if you have small children or a tendency to get seasick as our trip was pretty choppy, but again our group (all adults) was perfectly fine. If you are able, leave a generous tip for the first mate (E) as he works tips and works very hard! I would definitely recommend Catherine C. Charters!

This was a Father’s Day trip for my Dad, my son, and other men in my family. We all loved it. This boat was clean and well-maintained. The Captain and crew took care of everything. It didn’t take long before we were on the fish. When the biting slowed, the mate checked the lines and changed bait if needed. There were other boats in the same area as us, but they weren’t catching, we were. We had about four get off the lines, but it was OK. Had we landed them, we would have been at the limit. That’s how good Captain Bob kept us on the mackerel. After the trip they cleaned them all and bagged the up. All we had to do was take em home and cooked em. I can’t wait to go back on The Catherine C.

We take each of our grandchildren on a special vacation with just Grandma and Grandpa.  Our granddaughter chose a charter fishing trip for her special trip.
Captain Bob and first mate Ezra were the best. We caught the first Spanish Mackeral within 15 seconds of throwing the line in. We caught 30 fish total. Our granddaughter reeled in 27 of them. Two big ones , Red drums or Cobi got away. Captain Bob and Ezra were very friendly and shared fishing stories with us and explained things very well. I was especially impressed with how excited they would get when a fish was hooked. They cleaned and fileted the fish when we got back to shore. The boat was well maintained. A trip of a lifetime for our granddaughter.

We recently took a 6-hour charter fishing trip with Catherine C. Charters, and it was absolutely amazing! Captain Bob Crisher and Mate Hunter were fantastic from start to finish. They were so patient and wonderful with our kids (ages 5-10), making sure everyone was involved and having a great time.

We caught plenty of Bonito and Mackerel, and the crew made it so exciting for the kids. When our youngest got a little restless, Captain Bob went above and beyond by promoting her to “Captain” for a while and letting her steer the boat – it truly made her day!

This was our first charter fishing trip as a family, and it was the perfect bonding experience. The kids left saying it was the best trip EVER, and we couldn’t agree more. We’ll definitely be booking again in the future!

Thank you, Captain Bob and Hunter, for an unforgettable experience!
