Hey Dale this is Craig with Into the Blue. We tried to reach out to you several times over phone and text to see what we could have done to make your trip more enjoyable. We have never had a bad review and would love a little more feedback as to why. Please give us a call, text, email or response here.
Great trip, boat, people, fishing. Loved it. My son, I and a friend did this as first timers. Four hour trip was 800.00 I guess I didnt realize nor was it made clear prior to trip that a 20% gratuity was EXPECTED. Received a sarcastic email message from the Captain after trip regarding the tip we did give his first mate. Upset us all and put a dark cloud on entire experience.
Your party was told after the trip 20% gratuity was customary not expected. I let them know when they settled up. Also after the fish was cleaned and bagged by the mate. I emailed you 20% was customary not expected. Also was done in a professional manner on my level. In 17 season you are my first dark cloud review. And keep in mind like the email I sent you, mates work hard on fishing boats to make sure your experience is professional and great. 20% is customary just like any service industry. Also shown in the pic above Marcie you were never on the trip.
Please find another charter to fish with next time you find yourself in Destin Fl. You are not welcome back to ours.

This was my first charted experience and I feel confident to say it was nothing short of absolute excellence. Nino and Groovy combined have more than 3 decades of fishing experience and this shown true. Nino placed us directly on top the fish at every location, as soon as our lines were in the water fish were hitting non-stop! Groovy ran his ass off for us ensuring there was hardly ever a split second our hooks werenโt baited and ready to drop! The only thing I would suggest is taking some motion sickness medicine the night before and/or morning of your trip, just in case. These guys made sure we had a fun, safe and memorable experience. Donโt hesitate, book with them now!

Everything was as expected, caught our limit. The entire family, even our 9 year old had a blast. Capt. Nino and Groovy made us feel welcome and comfortable. Will book again!
Group of 6 that included 2 kids (10,9). Crew was incredibly friendly and worked extremely hard to put us on fish. Ended up catching various snapper, grouper, and King Mackerel! They showed superior knowledge and were very efficient. We had great action the whole time! This crew deserves 10 stars. Amazing trip! Iโd recommend this to anyone
