I believe Brandon and Andrew lead our trip. They tried with multiple stops for get us on the fish, but no luck. I think 3/4 of thr people didn’t catch a fish. Some did get multiple. I got the only fish out of my family of 4. Andrew did work to make sure lines stayed untangled and clear any issues while moving which was great. No live bait or alternate bait was brought out that I saw to try for catching. Benches to ride on were not comfortable.

fishing has been horrible this week. we think a few factors are making them not eat. we have a very strong high pressure over us. full moon this week. and they are spawning. normally we dont get all three at once but all we can do id try. i talked to a few other boats in our area. all the same problem. anyway. thank you for choosing us.

Crew was right on time for departure and very knowledgeable! There were at least two other groups that were back for a second or third time, so the crew obviously does a great job! It seemed like most everyone caught something. A few caught 4-5. I caught one. When my friend who was with me wasn’t catching anything on her line, Captain Brandon let her real in a couple that he hooked on his line. Both he and Firstmate Andrew were friendly, extremely attentive to any issue, and quick to help take... More

The crew was amazing and they tried different techniques from deep sea fishing to drifting very knowledgeable with their equipment to locate fish. They make sure that every Group leaves with something.. I went with my nine-year-old son. This was my second time on a charter and by far they exceeded expectations. From the start, they explained everything to everyone they walk around and assist you even make sure that my son left with a catch.. thank you so very much for your expertise and for making... More

Thats great !! We like seeing kids enjoying fishing. From the look in his face you can tell he was happy catching fish. We try our best to make every trip enjoyable! I didnt have the chance to go out that day but I like that from your review they are doing a good job. They also love to fish themselves. Capt Brandon was only 3 months old when he took his first trip out on the Gulf. Before he turned 3 he was swinging the rod like a pro. Its funny at that age he could handle the rod... More

Brandon and Andrew were wonderful. We booked the trip as a group of 9 with three littles. They were super accommodating, and so helpful in explaining what to do and baiting and taking the fish caught off the line. Not to mention, they cleaned the fish for us at the end and gave recommendations for catch and cook restaurants in the area. 10/10 experience. It was my dads 71st and we all had a great time.

Our team of guys headed out on a fishing charter this weekend, and it couldn’t have gone better. The crew was fantastic, super friendly, easygoing, and made sure everyone had an awesome time. From start to finish, there was nonstop laughter, plenty of fish caught, and even a few friendly competitions along the way. The captain knew all the best spots, and the guys were reeling them in one after another. Huge shoutout to the charter team for helping make this such a memorable... More
