Exciting Trip, Great for All Experience Levels

Half Day Trip – Inshore (LT)2 adults

The fish weren't working well the day of our trip, but Sean still made it a great morning! We had three inexperienced fishermen, two were teenagers. He was patient with all of us and took time to show us the basics and how to use each type of lure. He took us to a variety of spots and was willing to change things up to try to get us on fish. There were lots of spots he found with plenty of fish, but the fish just overall weren't hungry. Still, we caught a few and also had some that got away. We saw sharks and dolphins up close. It was exciting trying to catch a shark! The scenery was beautiful. Sean was enjoyable and friendly. He has a great passion for fishing and is very knowledgeable. We loved our time on the water and look forward to booking Sean again. 100% recommend!!

    WHAT AN EXPERIENCE!

    2 Hour Light Tackle Trip • 3 adults • 1 child

    Sean was outstanding! His knowledge of the fish and exactly where to find them was spot on. Whenever the bite slowed down, he quickly moved us to another location and had us back on fish in no time. We caught fish at every spot we visited. If someone got hung up or tangled, Captain Sean was ready with another rod so we could keep fishing while he took care of the mess. He also had a great personality, making the trip fun, relaxed, and enjoyable from start to finish. His professionalism, preparation, and dedication to making sure everyone had a great experience really stood out. I highly recommend booking a trip with Captain Sean, and I’ll definitely be booking with him again!

    My face hurts from smiling...

    Half Day Trip – Inshore (LT) • 2 adults • 1 child

    Sean was the best! He knew so much and was very confident in taking brand new salt water fishermen on a trip. He put us on Sea Trout right away. We fished for four hours straight and were sad to leave. My son caught more fish than me but we dont have a number, we lost count! We will most definitely will book with him again when we return to Florida. He was personable, confident, and spoke to us like we were friends for life. If youre looking for a great time, book this trip. We did the four hour inshore. We thought that flyfishing would be a bit much for a first time in the salt. If you have kids, Sean will be great. He was patient and thoughtful in his answers for all the questions we asked. Book this trip. It will be great!

    HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

    Full Day Trip– Inshore (LT) • 2 adults

    We had an absolutely incredible inshore fishing trip with Captain Sean! From the moment we stepped onto the boat, it was clear that Captain Sean is a true professional who knows these waters inside and out. He was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and went above and beyond to make sure both of us on board had a fantastic time and caught plenty of fish. The boat was clean, comfortable, and fully equipped with top-notch gear. Whether you are an experienced angler or a beginner, Captain Sean will tailor the trip perfectly to your skill level. We cannot recommend him highly enough and will definitely be booking another charter with him soon!

    Great trip with a great guide

    2 Hour Light Tackle Trip - 1:00 PM • 4 adults • 2 children

    If you want to do a fishing trip with someone who truly enjoys what they do, then book with Sean. My daughter loves to fish but was born into a family of non fishers. We just wanted to give give her a chance to reel some fish in and get some pointers. The forecast was shaky the day of our reservation but Sean stayed in touch and adjusted our start time to make sure we could get on the water. He warned us fishing might not be great but he found a spot and Nora caught several fish. He gave her tips along the way and told her about all the different species. At the end he even sat with her and showed her how to tie different knots and gave her a goodie bag of baits. We could not have had a better guide and will absolutely be booking with Sean again when we are back in the area. Highly recommend, especially if you are going our with kids!

    Class Act Guide

    Special 4 hour trip for Jeffrey Mullen • 2 adults

    Captain Sean was great. We started to fish on a tough day. Winds up and initially fishing was slow. He kept searching and at the end started catching a lot. Although the 4 hrs was up, Captain Sean continued to let us catch fish well after our finish time. He genuinely cares and takes pride in making sure you catch fish. Very personable, and conversation was very fun! Boat and equipment top notch, not beat up and old. Highly recommend if you want these things in your fishing guide. From someone whose fished all over the Southern US.
