The Captain was very prepared with gear and a game plan. He was very patient and helpful with our kids. Would definitely recommend him to anybody.
My wife and I went out the Capt. Aaron for a 6 hour trip and the action was pretty consistent throughout the day though we did not run into many keepers. We hit the bridges, mangroves, and patch reefs where we caught a variety of different species including a few larger lookdown/moon fish that were surprisingly delicious after we had them fried up at Lazy Days when we left the marina. My wife also hooked into a permit that unfortunately broke off a few mintues into the fight but definitely added some excitement for the day. Overall, we had a great day on the water and I cannot recommend Aaron enough!

Aaron tried his best to put us on spots for Grouper, Mangrove Reds and Tarpon.
Grouper beat us, Mangrove Reds bit - just not big enough, Tarpon sightings but sharks were faster to the bait.
Aaron looped back for a second try for grouper, but tide and winds were just not our friends tidsy.
One recommendation I would have is to understand tide and be flexible to alter the start time of your trip to maximize your chances.
While we did not come home with dinner in the cooler is was a gorgeous day out on the water.

Thanks Donna. Weโll get those Grouper to stay on the hook next time
Meet up with the Captain (Aaron Dykes). 15 minutes later we were on the fish. Wife wanted a โ pink oneโ. And she got one. She caught a Hogfish. I Hooked up on two awesome Permit- landed one. 15 lb +/- . Finished up trying for Tarpon.ย Caught a Bonnethead. It was a great day on the water. Captain diffently knowledgeable. Will definitely book again if I get back down here
We had heavy wind which limited our capabilities but Captain kept us on the water and showed us a great day.ย we tackled some bridges and some mangroves and channels.ย snapper a cuda and a few unknowns.ย Great for the whole family.ย Dont forget your sunscreen.
