    JT was amazing

    4 Hour Trip AM (5MAX) • 3 adults

    My family (dad,sister, fiance, and myself) had such amazing experience with JT! My dad has some very tough mobility issues and JT was so patient and caring when getting him in and out of the boat. JT also helped us when reeling in all those big fish! My dad caught the most and biggest fish on our trip! lol..it was like 27 inches long! JT was cheering us on and hopping all over that boat to make sure we weren’t missing an opportunity to catch a fish. We also saw dolphins! It was perfect! We would definitely do it again! Thank you so much, JT!

    May need a nap after this one!

    Tarpon Fishing • 2 adults

    What a great time. We started the day catching bait on sabiki rigs. When the captain decided we had enough we headed out to look for tarpon schools and caught a bonus redfish along the way. Our first tarpon school produced a bite that led to an hour plus long fight before she broke off. Three schools and a couple non target bonus fish later we hooked up again and after an hour long battle we got our tarpon pictures and high fives. Hire this guy and dont forget your sunscreen.

We hooked another one and managed to catch that one turned out to be an awesome day. great day of fishing. See you guys next time.

    Great outing with JT

    2 Hour Trip – Kids/Beginners Fun • 3 adults • 1 child

    We had a great fishing trip with JT. It was myself, my best friend, and my 6 year old son. It was his first time fishing and we started catching small bait fish right away that he was really excited about. After a bit we headed further out and started angling for the bigger stuff! I caught a grouper and a snapper. The trip was only a couple of hours which was perfect because that’s about the time my little boy lost interest! For the adults, it was both very relaxing and of course thrilling when we got one of the line. I will definitely go back out with JT for a longer trip when we’re down here again. He’s very personable, provides just the right amount of guidance, and was fun to be around! Highly recommend!

    Great Captain Great Time

    2 Hour Trip – Kids/Beginners Fun • 2 adults

    My husband and i had a blast. We have never done off shore fishing and we really enjoyed ourselves. We caught a bunch of lady fish but it was still super fun! The Captain was amazing! We got caught in HORRIBLE traffic and he was super patient and understanding with us. Will do it again!

    Response from Captain
