Everything from the Captain, first mate, the boat, the fishing equipment, and all things in-between was fantastic. James, the first mate, was informative and very kind to a number of our first timers. The Captain knew exactly where to go to catch our bait fish and sailfish. About ten minutes in fishing we hooked a sailfish. After about 30ish minutes we landed it. Captain Brad called the day before to confirm everything, provide info about the conditions, and made sure we knew how to find his boat at the marina. We honestly couldnโt have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend.

Capt. James and First Mate Jameson were awesome.ย Boat was clean and organized.ย Gear was top notch. The fish cooperated.ย Trolled for Mahi Mahi.ย At one point, three on at once. Jameson was ready with spinning gear if other fish followed the first one in.ย Jameson was great with our special needs son. They cleaned, filleted and bagged our catch.ย Highly recommend Southpaw Fishing.
We went on this fishing trip with our 9 Yr old son who loves fishing. He said it was better than he thought it would be!ย Brad and Jameson were awesome!ย They took the time to answer all of his questions and let him help!ย We caught a lot of Mahi Mahi!ย We would definitely recommend this charter to anyone!
Thanks Abby,ย Iโm glad Mason along with mom and dad had a good time. Please come back and see us when the time is right.
Captain Brad and James were organized, tactical and hardworking - made for a successful and unforgettable trip. Choppy water but they made us feel very safe. Put us on 3 sailfish and caught plenty of eaters too. Could have brought us back to shore but fished to the last minute hunting down the 3rd sailfish. Sushi at the docks (incredible), filleted our fish, offered pictures, gave restaurant recommendations, gave us the leader of the first sailfish we ever caught - lots of attention to detail that made it excellent. James is incredibly hardworking and patient with all our questionsโฆ. Will be coming back!

Capt. Brad runs a top notch charter. His ship was extremely clean. He goes to great lengths to help you catch what you are looking for. In our case it was sailfish. We had a very successful trip. Also cannot say enough about first mate James. He was on top of line placment and didnt mind answering our childrenโs questions. I would highly recommend taking your children on Southpaw. We look forward to doing this again!
Thanks Michael for your review. we enjoyed having your family aboard.
