  An Unforgettable Father-and-Son Fishing Adventure with Captain Ricky! 🎣✨

  Half Day Trip - 2:00 PM on June 26, 2026 • 2 adults • 1 child

  My seven-year-old son and I, visiting from Austria, spent a week in Florida and decided to book a four-hour afternoon fishing trip with Captain Ricky from 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM. It turned out to be one of the highlights of our vacation. Captain Ricky took us to several different fishing spots, and we caught three different species of fish – each one a completely new experience for us and species we had never caught before. For my son, this was a truly unforgettable adventure, and I enjoyed every minute of it as well. The exciting boat rides, the great conversations, Captain Ricky’s helpful tips and knowledge, and of course our fishing success made this trip incredibly special. We will both remember this experience for a very long time and can highly recommend Captain Ricky to anyone looking for a fun and memorable fishing trip in Florida.

  Awesome day - 5 species!

  3/4 Day Trip on November 10, 2025 • 4 adults

  We had a fantastic time with Captain Dawson. He put us on five different species, including clown knife, largemouth, mayan cichlid, and snakehead. The fish were all good size and four of us caught something. I missed a PB largemouth, but that just gives me more reason to go back :-) Dawson had a beautiful boat, top quality gear, and a friendly and knowledgeable personality. Could not have asked for more - we will definitely go again next year.

  Great trip, great captain!

  Half Day Trip on April 20, 2026 • 2 adults

  John was a great captain and got me on the fish very quickly. We caught Peacocks, Large mouth, Oscars, Gar, etc.. If a spot got quiet we moved from it quickly. Highly recommend this trip. This trip would be good for any level angler.
