    Absolutely amazing

    4 Hour Trip • 6 adults

    Cannot recommend enough. Not only are they amazing, the boat is so cool with a rustic antique charm with lots of years of stories. The fishing was so cool (saltwater catfish, starfish, puffer fish, and hammerheads). They’re just awesome guys and we cannot recommend a more personal experience. Skip the commercialized/highly advertised fishing charters and book with Paul and Mark. You truly will not forget it.

    Family Friendly Experience

    4 Hour Trip • 5 adults • 1 child

    We had an amazing time with Captain Paul! His first mate and him were very friendly. We were out as a family of five and had a great overall experience. We caught many fish, including small sharks. We cruised in his beautiful yacht, took a dip in the water, and followed a couple groups fo dolphins around. Great experience and highly recommended for family!

    Making Memories

    4 Hour Trip • 2 adults

    Captain Paul helped us experience a great fishing trip. Between him and his first mate we were educated on fishing, the area, his yacht and bees… yes I said bees. (First mate gave me ideas to take back home to help our bees. Captain Paul was so knowledgeable and he just made our trip the best. We will definitely be back next year.

    Response from Captain

    August fishing trip

    5 Hour Trip • 6 adults

    Captain Paul and the first mate (forgot his name) did awesome with us. The kids had a blast catching everything. We caught alot of catfish but the kids didn’t care. We did catch some hammerhead sharks and some spinner sharks. It was definitely worth what we paid.

    Response from Captain

    Amy and Jon ! Thank you for the great review. It was such a pleasure meeting and playing with you all!! The “kids” were fantastic. Have a fantastic rest of your vacation!! Hi to all! Paul and Marc

    Greatest of all time!!

    5 Hour Trip • 4 adults

    Captain Paul and first mate Mark were outstanding. They are very patient with us and we got a ton of fish! In fact, our two grandkids caught 25 fish between the two of them including a 6 lb. Shark! Paul and Mark were outstanding and very patient. We would highly recommend them!
