  BOOK THESE GUYS!

  3/4 Day Trip on September 14, 2026 • 4 adults

  Gabe and Tino were absolutely incredible! These guys worked like a well-oiled machine from the moment we got out on the water. They were never afraid to put in the work constantly clearing lines, throwing out fresh bait, watching the birds, and doing everything they could to get us on the fish. What impressed us most was how badly they wanted us to catch fish. Honestly, I think they wanted us to catch one even more than we did! 😂 They never stopped working. You could tell they knew these waters extremely well. They were constantly reading the birds and the conditions and knew exactly what to do to get us on the fish. Once we hooked up, they were just as efficient getting everything handled on the boat while coaching us through exactly what we needed to do to land the fish. We ended the trip with FOUR mahi-mahi, and that was 100% thanks to Gabe and Tino and how hard they worked for us. If you’re looking for a crew that is actually going to WORK to put you on fish instead of just taking you for a boat ride, these are your guys. We had an awesome experience and would absolutely fish with Gabe and Tino again!

  Can’t say enough good things.

  Full Day Trip - 8:00 AM on September 16, 2026 • 3 adults

  We had an incredible day on the water and landed 11 Mahi Mahi. The crew was fantastic and stayed fully committed right to the very end, constantly working to put more fish on the boat. On top of the great fishing, the boat was kept spotlessly clean the entire time, which made the whole trip even more enjoyable. Professional, hardworking crew and a top-notch vessel — highly recommend this charter if you’re looking for a memorable day of fishing.

  Five Star Sport Fishing — These Guys Don’t Just Fish, They Hunt the Ocean!

  Full Day Trip on August 14, 2026 • 1 adult

  Five Star Sport Fishing is on another level. 😂🎣 I’ve been on a LOT of charters, and these guys seriously impressed me. Captain Ruben was driving Ruckus while glassing the ocean with binoculars like he had built-in radar. I can barely use binoculars standing still without getting a headache. 😂 Captain Gabe was working the deck, and that guy can MOVE. The second they see fish, trolling gear comes down, bait rigs come out, and the whole boat changes tactics in seconds. Gabe even taught me how to set up the outriggers and explained how everything worked, which made the trip even better. Ruckus is clean, meticulously maintained, and a perfect size for the ocean. And yes… it has a refrigerator. 😂 No soggy sandwiches floating under the Gatorades. That alone deserves a star. We even had a shark come in and eat our fish. I’m pretty sure that wasn’t included in the package. 😂🦈 I also loved seeing how well Ruben and Gabe work with the other charter captains. They may be competitors, but they share information and help each other find fish. Hard-working, knowledgeable, great people, and they truly FISH.

  Amazing trip and Crew!!! 5 Star Sportfishing

  3/4 Day Trip on June 10, 2026 • 5 adults • 2 children

  Boat and crew were ready to go when we got there. Nice clean boat with excellent equipment. Captain Ruben, First mate Gabe and Noah were awesome!! I took my wife and three of my daughters. All three of my daughters caught amazing fish (2 striped marlin and a huge Mahi Mahi). They knew the girls were novice fisherman and were extremely helpful in landing the fish while letting the girls really soak up the experience!! They were great with the younger kids coaching them through it. I have done a lot of charter fishing and would rank this trip near the top, and the crew played a huge role in that!

  Awesome fishing experience

  3/4 Day Trip on May 31, 2026 • 4 adults

  Had an awesome experience with Five Star Fishing. Captain Dallas and Gabe were both incredible the entire trip — super knowledgeable, friendly, and made everything fun and easy whether you’re experienced or new to fishing. The boat was great, the atmosphere was relaxed, and they worked hard to make sure everyone had a good time and caught fish. You can tell they genuinely care about giving people a great experience. Definitely recommend booking with them if you’re looking for a top-tier fishing charter. We caught 2 mahi mahi (1 was a huge bull) and a nice spear fish. Took some work finding them, but they never gave up and we were rewarded for it. Great trip overall.
