This was one fun trip the captain and guide were amazing. They put us right on the fish and we limited out in the first 2 hours. I will highly recommend Emerald C to everyone. it was the best experience of this trip. We will be booking another trip in the future.
We absolutely tore up the mingo snappers had almost our limit of 5 people we caught 47 mingos, 2 Amber jacks a Giant Bull Shark, a couple trigger fish and even a grouper that was barely just shy of the length it needed to be. our boat captain was garret he was awsome very easy to get a long with and he made sure we caught fish. I will definitely request him next time we are down! Craig also did a great job! We had a little boat issue the day we booked for so we werent able to go at that time and craig made sure to keep in touch with me and got us booked on a different day. EMERALD C FISHING CHARTER is the best fishing charter i would NOT recommend anyone go anywhere else! Thanks guys and I will see yall next year!!
We had an adventurous deep sea outing with Emerald “C” and Captain Gavin. It was not ideal conditions with rain storms around and 3’ waves but I think we made the most of it. Caught around 20 fish total with 11-12 keepers mostly Mahi-mahi and almaco and mingo snapper. We caught a few red snapper but just under the 16” length limit. Caught some nice triggerfish but released due to out of season. Kids had a good experience even though one got sea sick. Capt cut the trip short due to storm coming at us. Graciously adjusted our total. There’s a wonderful food truck on your way out called Deep Blue. They made great fish tacos from our catch then we ate the rest later for dinner. Overall a great experience and the highlight of out trip. I would have liked to have tried live bait such as pinfish for those bigger snapper. Maybe next time.
We booked with Captain Craig for a charter fishing trip for my 12-year-old son and his cousin’s birthdays, and it ended up being the highlight of our trip! Due to a thunderstorm the day before, Craig had to make a few changes to the itinerary, and we were so thankful he worked it out so our trip wasn’t completely canceled while also taking care of the group booked before us who had missed their trip because of the weather. We ended up fishing with Captain Bill, and he was amazing! He knew all the best spots, and we barely had time to sit before another fish was on the line. The kids had an absolute blast, and so did the adults! Great communication from start to finish, a clean boat, and they were always right there helping bait hooks and making sure everyone was set up for the next catch. Such a fun experience and such a great memory for the boys’ birthdays. We’ll definitely be booking with them again!
The trip was great and the captain put us right on some big fish fast. We had a small malfunction arise with the trolling motor not working out at sea, but the captain adapted and still got us fish in the boat regarldess Emerald C and Captain Gabe are great! We will be back to fish with this group again for sure! Thanks Emerald C - Hunter Smith
We went out for 10 hours which is nothing to scoff at! But given the opportunity I never think twice about going bacl to Captain Craig and Captain Garrett they were hands down some of the best Captains anyone could have ever asked for and when I'm in the area again I know exactly who I will be calling they are incredibly kind and caring
