Overall

We went on the fishing trip to catch some decent size fish. The experience was predominantly for our boys, 12 and 15. Our 15 year old was hoping to catch some good fish. The boys did catch a variety of fish. But…. Long story short, one of the bigger fish our son caught got bitten off the rod- with only the head left. Captain Tony set up a rail for a shark using that head as the bait and our boy ended catching a 7 ft shark! Captain Tony was amazing, he was guiding our son and steering the boat... More

It was truly an amazing experience sharing the incredible fishery the Florida Keys has to offer with you and your family. I’m especially glad we were able to land that shark for your son—he did a fantastic job, especially considering we were fighting a 175+ pound shark on 40 lb braid! Until next time, wishing you all following seas and tight lines. Capt. Tony 🎣

Had a fabulous excursion. Water condition were rough, yet Tony got us on fish and at times and at times the action was intense. Grouper, shark, tarpon were all caught or pursued with close calls.

Capt Tony took my family and I out for a morning bridge trip. We had a great time. My family wasn’t as enthusiastic about the trip as I was, but Tony did an exceptional job at keeping them interested and entertained while out on the water. The boat was perfect for the four of us and we all fit comfortably. We caught some fish and saw a lot of action. Tony was a great Captain and I really enjoyed going out with him. I would absolutely recommend him and would book him again on my next... More

Captain Tony took us around no name key and then to catch a few fish at the broken bridge as we watcher the sunset. He was a great guide, and helped us learn about the area and how to fish it. Captain Tony was very accommodating, taking pictures of us, baiting our lines, and sending us home with fresh filets of fish on ice. Next time we are in the Keys, we will for sure book another trip.

Captain Tony was amazing and my family had the best trip…and most importantly my boys both caught sharks which is all they wanted to do! Tony was very communicative before the trip itself and I told him that was the boys biggest thing they were hoping for. I can’t say enough about this trip…my 11yr old is still talking about it and it was the highlight of the trip!

It was truly my pleasure having you and your family out on the water with me. Watching kids reel in fish they’ve been hoping for is absolutely priceless-their excitement and energy make the whole experience even more special. Thank you again for choosing to fish with me. I hope to see you all back soon for another great adventure! Until next time, wishing you calm winds and following seas. Tight lines, Capt. Tony

My son and I had a great experience fishing with Capt. Tony! He dodged a rainstorm, knows all the good spots, and helped my son with his fishing technique. We were able to catch a small shark, a goliath grouper, and some snapper! Overall it was a great trip and I’d definitely book Capt. Tony again!
