Had a wonderful first time experience

Half Day Trip (AM)4 adults2 children

This was the first charter trip we have all been on. Captain Cole was real good with the to boys on are trip. Talked with us and was real good at helping everyone understand what to look for. We caught multiple kinds of fish and sharks. Even caught a 41” Red unfortunately too big to keep but was an awesome time. Highly recommended this charter team we will definitely be back again.

    A memory of a lifetime

    3/4 Day Trip – Inshore • 2 adults • 1 child

    our captain Austin was first class for me and my daughter. He was right on the fish first thing. He actually adjusted his schedule to get us out about a hour earlier to hit the main bite! We caught some massive 33" to 35" snook and red fish as big or bigger. Also flounder with a mixed bag of snappers and grouper with a jack cravel in the mix as well. Our trip is one that will live in my memories for the rest of my life. I would suggest these guys above all the others for there knowledge and willingness to go that extra mile for there clients. Absolutely superb service! Thank you!

    Exceptional Captain and Charter Experience

    Half Day Trip (PM) • 2 adults

    Capt. Austin made our trip unforgettable! My Mom and I are both inexperienced ocean fishermen, but he made us feel comfortable and confident from the moment we stepped on his clean boat. He was personable, patient, and incredibly knowledgeable, putting us on a variety of fish and showing us several great spots throughout the trip. He made it easy for us to learn and enjoy ourselves and even had lots of cold waters for us. If you’re looking to catch some big fish I highly recommend Capt. Austin!

    Great Captain and great trip

    Half Day Trip (AM) • 2 adults

    We booked last minute with Ferg’s hoping to catch fish and see some of Florida’s waterways. The trip was exactly what we hoped for, caught fish, fished several locations with different species; and as a bonus saw dolphins and manatees. Austin works hard finding and catching fish. We’ll be returning customers!
