  Great Day on the Water!!

  4 Hour Trip (AM) on September 8, 2026 • 4 adults • 2 children

  Conditions on the Gulf weren’t favorable, but Captain Sam made the absolute best of it, and we spent an awesome afternoon fishing in the bay. Most importantly, we accomplished our goal, our boys put fish on the boat! Captain Sam was incredibly patient and took his time teaching our boys the ins and outs of fishing. He made the experience fun, comfortable, and memorable for them. I would highly recommend him to anyone taking young children or first-time fishermen out on the water. Sam, thank you for making this an afternoon our family won’t soon forget. On the way back, the boys said it was “the best day of their lives!” We’ll see ya next time.

  Fun Fishing in Florida🎣🐠

  4 Hour Trip (AM) on September 10, 2026 • 2 adults

  We had such a great time fishing with Salty Sam’s! 🎣 We caught some triggerfish and vermilion snapper, and Sam worked HARD to put us on fish! He’s a true local who knows the ocean like the back of his hand, and his knowledge really shows. Best of all, he’s just a fun, happy guy who makes the whole trip enjoyable! 😎🌊 If you’re looking for a great fishing trip with someone who knows where the fish are, we definitely recommend Salty Sam’s! 🎣🐟

  Capt. Sam is awesome

  4 Hour Trip (AM) on May 14, 2026 • 4 adults

  This was an amazing trip! My wife our 2 boys and I went for a 4 hour trip and had a blast. Capt. Sam took us right to the fish. We had a couple Grouper hits right off the bat but we tried to catch some dinner before going after the big guys. We caught a bunch of Mingos a bunch of keepers and some we threw back in. Caught a bunch of other fish and then we went after the Groupers, both boys and I landed Groupers and with minutes left before we needed to head back I hooked up a monster, rod bent in half Sam and I both pulling and reeling and then I lost it. Rookie mistake. Next time I’m in Florida I will book another trip and this time for longer and we will get one of the big guys.

  Quick bite and Catch

  4 Hour Trip (AM) on April 29, 2026 • 2 adults

  My wife and I went out with Captain Sam . My wife has never been fishing in the gulf he made sure she had a good experience and caught fish. She was hooked up on thr first dropped and caught a lot of B liners and small trigger fish . My wife also was catching two per drop for a little bit . Captain Sam is local to the area and knowledgeable of the area. Overall for our trip we had a great experience plenty of bites . Family friendly boat with great tackle . We had a great experience , looking forward to coming back soon. Tried for grouper but they would not corporate, but wr caught plenty of snapper and trigger fish.

  Best trip ever!

  4 Hour Trip (AM) on August 11, 2026 • 2 adults

  We had an absolutely fantastic experience with Sam! From the moment we started the trip, he was knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely wanted us to have a great time. He knew exactly where to find the fish and was patient, helpful, and encouraging throughout the entire trip. The boat was clean, the equipment was great, and the whole experience was relaxed and enjoyable. Whether you’re an experienced angler or just looking to get out on the water and have some fun, I highly recommend booking a trip with him. We made some great memories and will definitely be back!
