half day with Cap Allen

4 Hour Trip (PM)3 adults

lots of big fish were there, but just not biting that day. That's ok. The fact that he absolutely guaranteed numbers of snook over 40" was ok. It just shows his inexperience and that he's a bit too overboard wit the sales BS. Very likable guy, just youthful cockiness that he didn't not deliver on. An experienced fisherman knows it doesn't always happen. I'm giving Allen a NO because we booked a full day and talked about it. He had us stay at the Wyndham to get an early start the next day. At the last minute he said to meet him at the dock at 4:00 pm! We wasted an unnecessary night at the hotel. When the big fish wouldn't bite the dead mullet that he said they had been eating in previous days, he did not even try the live baits he said he had - not a good ability to mix it up. So, overall - charged me the quoted full day price and gave us a half-day. That's a NO. Oh, he also admitted he took a midnight charter the night before our booked fullday trip. No wonder he pushed us from early AM to late PM. That's totally unreliable.

    Nightime is the right time

    4 Hour Trip – Night2 adults

    First time doing a night charter. Uniquely different and fun. It was colder but we caught over 10 different species of fish. You never knew what was taking out you line. Captain Mateo was knowledgeable and fun to be with.

    Great inshore fishing trip with John

    4 Hour Trip (PM)3 adults

    My Father and I recently went on a fishing trip in Jupiter, Florida and we fished with John as the guide. From the moment we stepped on the boat, John went above and beyond to make sure we had a fantastic time. Not only was he knowledgeable about the area and the best spots to catch fish, but he was also great company. Throughout the trip, we caught an abundance of snook and John made sure to give us tips and tricks to improve our technique. John cleaned and filleted the fish for us at the end of the day. The entire experience was truly unforgettable and I would highly recommend John to anyone looking for a great guide. Whether you're an experienced angler or just starting out, John will make sure you have an amazing time on the water. I can't wait to book another trip with John and Snook Action in the future!
