Great Charter

1st time outing with Captain Justin . It was cold and cloudy with winds at 15 plus . Tough day but , Captain Justin still got us on a few fish . He is very knowledgeable and accommodating.

    Awsome experience

    6 Hour Trip – Gulf - 2:00 PM5 adults1 child

    We went out into Gulf and fishing was good. We had delayed departure a bit for a weather system coming through then it was supposed to be clear after that. We went out and captain got us in some good fishing. An unexpected weather system popped up just south of us and waves got pretty big, couldn’t see over them when in the swell, so we pulled up and headed in. The captain was calm and got us back safe, but it was quite a ride. The trip in was an experience that we will never forget. Highly recommend.

    Captain Justin goes above and beyond

    8 Hour Trip – Gulf4 adults

    This was our third trip with Paradise Charters. Captain Justin allowed us to stay out several hours longer to make sure we got on fish. the captain even took the time to filet a shark at home for us since it would’ve taken much longer to do on the boat. He went above and beyond, I highly recommend Paradise Charters!

    Great trip overall!

    3 Hour Trip inshore - 2:00 PM2 adults

    Justin was very nice and friendly, we caught a few fish, saw a bunch of dolphins, enjoyed the ride. Fish weren’t biting as expected, but that’s why it’s called fishing and not catching. After our time was up and heading back to the dock, he stopped one last time to try and get us another keeper, and boy did that pay off! 10lb red snapper and another keeper! That extra effort showed us what the captain is all about and would book again! Thanks again Justin was great

    had a great time!

    3 Hour Trip inshore2 adults

    I have fished my whole life off and on in the midwest. like Capt. Justin, our summer camp was on the back of a boat (although we were not commercial fishin). my wife never fished much and had never fished the saltwater, so we just hired Capt. Justin to put us on the fish. He did exactly what we expected, and then some. i can bait my own hooks no problem, but my wife needed some assistance and Capt Justin did just that. we were very happy, we caught fish, and as a bonus, got to watch the Blue Angels practice right overhead! awesome experience all around. We will 100% recommend this charter!
