Fun for both experienced and beginners

3 hour inshore fishing - 3:00 PM6 adults4 children

Capt. Eddy was great, got us right on the fish. we caught a variety and even brought some home for dinner. overall, I would highly recommend taking this charter. We had a mix of experienced and beginners, but everyone had a great time. Download the Fishing Booker App prior to going because the cell service on the island is terrible depending on your carrier.

    Nice Fishing Day

    6 Hour Trip • 5 adults

    Captain Eddie did everything in his will to get us to the fishing spots and get some keepers. The fish didn’t cooperate. We got some keeper mangrove snappers! Got some Groupers (Goliath, Red), Ladyfish, a good bunch of non-keeper Snappers and the dreaded catfish. Captain Eddie didn’t leave any hook unbaited and helped us have very nice day of fishing. We will be back, and definitely will get in contact with Captain Eddie for another good fishing trip.

    one of those days…

    4hour inshore fishing - 12:30 PM • 2 adults

    Captain Eddy worked hard to put us on the fish with different techniques at various locations, depths and tidal flows. Larger fish just weren’t biting, as evidenced by just a couple fish being cleaned by numerous captains back at the dock. By comparison, we threw back one small keeper and numerous fish of four different species that were too small to keep. Note that we rated the overall experience as 4 stars due to the lack of biting fish, not due to any deficiency by Eddy, but the captain and boat as 5 stars. It was not his fault that they weren’t biting for anyone that day.

    Thanks for the great review. We tried our best and I know next time will be better.

    More fish than we could count!

    4hour Fishing/shelling • 6 adults • 4 children

    We had a great morning on the water with Captain Eddy! We found a whole bag full of shells 🐚 then caught more fish than we couls count. Eddy was great. He was personable, experienced, and made sure we had a good time. We would definitely recommend and hope to make it out with him again one day!

    Solid trip

    4hour inshore fishing • 3 adults

    Went fishing while on vacation. Eddy has a great contender bay boat and took us on an excellent trip. Given weather conditions, and peak summer, it was hard to find a steady bite. Eddy worked tirelessly to get us on the bite. We ended up with several snook and mangrove snapper. Recommend.
