Half Day Trip – Inshore - 1:00 PM4 adults2 children

We had an absolutely amazing experience on our charter boat trip! From start to finish, everything exceeded out expectations. The captain was incredibly professional, friendly, and made us feel safe and comfortable the entire time. The boat itself was clean, spacious, and well maintained. Weather you're looking to relax, celebrate a special occasion, or just spend quality time with your family on the water, this charter is the perfect choice. We made unforgettable moments and can't wait to book again. Highly recommended.

    ★★★★★ Amazing First Family Fishing Trip!

    Sunset cruise • 4 adults • 2 children

    This was our first time fishing as a family, and it turned out to be a wonderful experience we won't forget. Captain Andy really knew his stuff — he took us straight to all the best fishing spots, and everyone in the family got a turn reeling something in. We even pulled up a couple of crabs along the way, which was a fun surprise for the kids! The whole trip felt easy and stress-free thanks to Captain Andy's guidance, and it was the perfect introduction to fishing for our family. We're already looking forward to our next trip out on the water. Highly recommend for families looking to try fishing for the first time!

    An anniversary sunset cruise

    Sunset cruise • 2 adults

    The two-hour sunset cruise was a fun and relaxing way to celebrate our anniversary. Captain Andy was friendly, knowledgeable, and great to talk to. He happily answered all of our questions and made the experience enjoyable. We headed toward the inlet for some flounder fishing and caught a nice size fish. If we book again, we’d probably choose a trip during the spring or fall when the fishing is typically better, but we still had a wonderful time and would definitely recommend the experience. One small thing that would have made our anniversary cruise even more memorable would have been a simple celebratory touch, such as being greeted with a bottle of champagne or a single rose. It certainly wasn’t expected and didn’t take away from our experience, but since the captain knew we were celebrating a special occasion, we thought there might be a little acknowledgment. A small gesture like that would have made the trip feel even more special. Perhaps it’s something to consider for future guests celebrating a milestone???

    Best 40th birthday experience!

    Half Day Trip – Inshore - 1:00 PM • 2 adults

    Captain Andy was awesome, very laid back, fun, and knowledgeable! He was super flexible and accommodating due to the storms, and we can’t thank him enough. We had a great time! Very clean boat, well maintained equipment and well stocked bait (thankfully because I’m good at catching rocks and missing a good hook set on a bite 😄), but Andy was able to help us catch some flounder, sea bass, tautog, and a triggerfish! Hopefully we can make this a yearly trip because it was a great day on the water with a great captain! Thanks for everything Andy!

    Wonderful Trip

    Half Day Trip – Inshore • 2 adults

    my adult son and I had a wonderful time together with Capt Andy. Each stop yielded some action. we all caught some good looking fish and lost a few. Unfortunately, all of the catches were just a little shy of keeper size. Andy was great and engaging. Of course time with my son was priceless.
