  great time with a great Captain!

  Half Day Trip (PM) on August 12, 2026 • 5 adults

  Captain Brad was a great captain who is very knowledgeable with his boat, tackle and the waters! After some skeptical weather it was decided that we could still make the trip happen and we were fortunate enough to find some schools of Bull Reds that made the trip even more exciting landing those on the boat! Then he took us to some of his favorite spots along the river and even though you can never guarantee landing a catch... those spots did not disappoint! We had a fun boat ride out and back in to the docks. Captain Brad is not only knowledgeable, but is very friendly, honest and courteous to all of us aboard. We're definitely coming back to hear new adventures and fish some of his great spots! Thanks for making this trip memorable Captain Brad and the boys (young men really) had a blast and will talk about this fish story forever!

  Brad us hammering fish all day

  Half Day Trip (AM) on April 29, 2026 • 4 adults

  What an awesome experience. From the moment we dropped lines we were hammering speckled trout. Brad knew exactly where to go and how to catch. We limited out and had to toss many back. He also went out of his way to try and catch us some reds. The boat was really well laid out, too to give us each ample space to cast. My mates and I couldn’t have asked for a better day of fishing. Thanks Brad!!!

  Great time with Captain Brad

  Half Day Trip (PM) on July 15, 2026 • 4 adults

  We had an amazing experience with Captain Dwayne and Brad. We reeled in plenty of fish and had some wonderful conversations throughout our trip. It was particularly heartwarming to learn about Brad's commitment to his faith and his contributions to his church and community. We would absolutely recommend this Captain to any fellow anglers!

  We had so fun with Captain Brad!

  2 Hour Trip – Kids on July 22, 2026 • 2 adults

  We had so much fun fishing with Captain Brad Bishop. It rained but it did not keep us from enjoying our trip.He had a lot of knowledge about the area and where to fish. Captain Brad was friendly and was so great with our grandson. He took us to several fishing spots to be sure we got to catch fish.
