Captain Xavier

5hr – Tarpon Fishing (NSB)2 adults

This young man is a great captain. He put us on giant reds all day. He also put us on tarpon. My experience with this captain was one of the best I've ever had. Very personal with my wife and I. We could not have had a better experience. Xavier worked very hard to keep us on the fish. By time our trip was over I was worn out just from catching the biggest Reds I've ever seen. Captain we really appreciate you for the experience. We wl be back next year in July to enjoy another visit with you.

    Caught some huge shark!!

    Shark Fishing Nsb • 4 adults • 1 child

    Caught multiple species of shark and had a blast doing it. Captain was friendly but wish he communicated more. We spent the first hour or so cruising around without any communication as to what we were doing or looking for. Eventually we figured out that we were looking for baitfish. For first timers a little more insight as the day went would have been better but overall very enjoyable.

    Captain Xavier put us on them!!!

    7 Hour Trip – Saltwater (NSB) • 4 adults

    We booked our trip the night before an extremely short notice and am so glad we chose Captain Xavier!! He was amazing! His knowledge of the water and guidance in helping us catch some of the biggest fish we have ever seen was amazing! He had patience, knowledge and passion for fishing and made our trip so worth while! Highly recommend him if you are looking for a fun day on the water with lots of bending poles and fighting fish!

    Tarpon Fishing

    5hr – Tarpon Fishing (NSB) • 2 adults

    The captain knew what he was doing, the boat was great equipment was top-of-the-line, bait was live, saw the Tarpon but they just weren’t hungry. Always a good day to be on the water.

    Ladies THIS is what your husband wants!

    7 Hour Trip – Saltwater (NSB)

    I booked a charter with Captain X to surprise my husband for his birthday. It's been a rough couple of years so I really wanted to give him a unique experience. Great fishing is never guaranteed, my husband and I know this based on our own fishing trips, but Captain X knows the fish!! They were literally catching fish while people in nearby boats were not able to. He put my husband on so many different fish during the day - from 40-50lb reds and even a tarpon!! The photos and his smile says it all. I had a very easy & reassuring time booking with Xavier online, and he treated me & my husband very well. Everything was taken care of & my husband only had to bring things that he wanted for his own comfort. He's still talking about his trip, and now we have plans to go again this year! Thank you Xavier for helping me spoil him in the best way possible. You're a fishing genius! Can't wait for next trip. Mr & Mrs Swift
