Kevin, thank you so much for the great review! We’re thrilled to hear your 8-year-old and father-in-law had such an awesome time on the water. We always aim for that perfect balance between deep-sea action and steady nonstop fishing, and we’re happy it hit the mark for your family. It was a pleasure having you all aboard, and the photo you shared is fantastic! Hope to fish with you again soon. Capt. Ozzy & 1st Mate Yari

    Great First Experience

    OFFSHORE 6HR DEEP SEA • 6 adults

    Had an amazing time on this trip, it was our first time deep sea fishing as a group of 6 and it couldnt have been any better than with Pelagic Pirate Charters. Captain Ozzy was extremely attentive, knowledgeable, and passionate with the fishing which made our experience so much more unique. One thing that specifically stood out was Ozzy’s communication before the trip, his responses were very timely and answered them with great detail. We caught plenty of Mahi and had a few opportunities for some skipjack. Would highly recommend this charter to everyone, and will definitely be coming back for another trip when the opportunity presents itself.

    Reported Catch
    Dolphin (Mahi Mahi)

    Couldn’t have asked for a better day out

    CATCH AND COOK!! 5HR • 5 adults • 1 child

    Nothing I write here could possibly capture how amazing our day was with Captain Ozzy & Yari. Fishing aside they’re two of the nicest people I’ve met in a long time, and their love of the ocean was clear from the moment we stepped aboard their boat. They were extremely helpful to everyone in our group that needed help, and they clearly know their way around the area as we were catching fish within about 3min of dropping anchor. They were great with kids too, and I highly highly recommend them for anyone looking to charter a family-friendly adventure. They prepped our fish and cooked up a feast afterwards, and were genuinely a pleasure to hang out with both on land and on the water. We will 1000% be back to charter their services next time we’re in Miami and suggest anyone reading this do the same. (PS - My almost-6-year-old son wanted me to mention that he caught 9 fish today, and all-told our group of 5 had at least 25 catches of which 14-15 were keepers)

    Response from Captain

    Isaac, this truly means so much to us. Thank you for such an incredible review. It was an absolute pleasure having you and your family out with us. From the moment you stepped on the boat, the energy was just right, and those are always the trips that turn into something special. Watching everyone get into fish so quickly, and seeing how excited your son was the entire time, especially catching 9 fish himself, that’s exactly what it’s all about for us. Those are the memories that last forever. We’re so glad you enjoyed the full experience, from the fishing to cooking up your catch afterwards. That’s one of our favorite parts too. Thank you again for trusting us with your day on the water. We’ll be ready for you anytime you’re back in Miami for round two. Captain Ozzy & Ms. Yari

    A 5-Star Trip with Captain Ozzy

    4HR - Reef Wreck Drift AM • 2 adults

    This was my first time fishing with Captain Ozzy, and he delivered an absolutely exceptional experience. Ozzy is one of the most professional and knowledgeable captains I’ve ever fished with. He reads the water perfectly, adjusts spots based on conditions, and genuinely cares about putting you on fish. And it worked, I landed 18 fish this trip, including a beautiful blue parrotfish, which instantly became the highlight of my day. What I appreciate most is how patient and attentive Ozzy is. He explains every technique, helps you handle each species properly, and creates an atmosphere that’s fun, relaxed, and always safe. You can feel that he really loves what he does, and that makes the whole trip unforgettable. If you’re looking for a captain who’s skilled, friendly, and consistently delivers amazing results on the water, I couldn’t recommend Captain Ozzy more. I’ll definitely be coming back for round two.

Ozzy, take great pride in teaching, explaining every technique, and making each trip fun, comfortable, and safe. Knowing that came through for you truly makes my day. We really appreciate your kind words and the awesome photos you shared. Can’t wait to welcome you back for round two! Capt. Ozzy

    Fishing with Ozzy

    3HR – Kids Inshore Fishing - 2:00 PM • 4 adults • 1 child

    My family of four had an absolutely amazing afternoon on the water with Captain Ozzy and 1st Mate Yari. They know how to locate the fish. Literally, the first cast was "fish on!" and from there we caught 6 different species of fish, and the action was non-stop. Captain Ozzy answered all my fishing questions and he was adept at adjusting his approach based on the experience level of the angler. Yari was WONDERFUL with my 9 year old daughter who enthusiastically reported that it was her best fishing trip ever! The boat was clean, well equipped with bait and tackle, and comfortable. The captain cleaned our catch for us and they were ready for the pan. I highly recommend this guide service and we will definitely go out again on our next trip to Miami.

    Response from Captain

    Thank you so much, William! We truly appreciate the detailed and kind review. It was an absolute pleasure having your family onboard, and we’re so glad everyone had such a great time, especially hearing that your daughter had her best fishing trip ever! We’d love to have you back out with us again on your next trip to Miami. Captain Ozzy & Ms. Yari

    Awesome trip!

    OFFSHORE 6HR DEEP SEA • 4 adults

    This was such a great trip - From initial communication to final goodbyes, everything was smooth and easy. I let Ozzy know we were hoping to target mahimahi, and he was very transparent letting me know some had been around but no guarantee. Luckily for us, we got 5 as well as 2 sharks! Was great value for money for this trip, would highly recommend and we are already working out when we can get back again!

    Reported Catch
    Dolphin (Mahi Mahi)
    Response from Captain

    Thank you so much, Jack. We truly appreciate you taking the time to share this! It was an absolute pleasure having you and your family on board. From the start, you were all great to communicate with, and we loved how excited you were to target mahi. As we always say, nothing is guaranteed out there, but we’ll always give it 100%… and we’re so glad it paid off for you guys! Landing those mahi and a couple sharks made it that much more special. Days like that are exactly why we love what we do, great people, great energy, and unforgettable moments on the water. We’re really looking forward to having you back out with us again soon! 🎣 Capt.
