The fish didn’t want to bite today.  We had to work for the fish that we brought home, but that’s fishing.  Captain Steele put us on-top of fish, but for whatever reason they weren’t interested.  Caught fish today that I’ve never caught (False Albicore and Needle fish) before.. Also we caught Red Snapper, Sea Bass, Red Vermillion Snapper and shark.

Captain Steel was great. Super down to earth and knowledgeable about all think fiahing and not in the Southport area. I took my normally cautious 5 year old for a 2 hour afternoon trip. With very little description of us and specifically my sons fishing experience Captain Steel thoughtfully prepared a game plan for us so that we could do something a little different than we were used to and get a good taste of fishing in the ocean. We caught spanish mackerel, bluefish, and near the end tried some... More

We had a fantastic girls trip out on the water with Captain Steele! He knew exactly where to catch the fish and even put us right on top of the shark for our best chance to catch one! The 4 hour trip was perfect and the boat is beautiful! Outstanding outfit- will use Catherine Anne any time we’re in Southport! All details are taken care of, super easy, fun and exciting trip!!

Capt. Steele was very communicative and an incredible guy! Conditions were tough offshore so we went inshore and after some break offs we train a few different spots until Capt. Steele put us in the bite. It wasn’t the best bite that day but Capt. Steele worked tirelessly and got us on the fish and sent us home with dinner. A fantastic boat and quality gear and great hospitality and expertise got us a great day and good memories. Steele even gave us a lunch recommendation that hit the spot!

The wahoo weren’t cooperating but we caught a mess of mahi, blackfin and skipjacks. Captain Steele knows his stuff and was great with my 9 year-old. While other boats in the area were giving up on trolling and going bottom fishing, Captain Steele found the fish and figured out what they wanted. At one point, we had 5 or 6 fish on the line at the same time (chaos but in a good way); on several other passes we had at least 2 hooked up at once. Will definitely fish with Captain Steele next time... More
