Most species we have ever caught!

3 Hour Trip – Inshore5 adults

We had the best time with Captain Lucas during our 3 hour voyage. He took us to two locations that were plentiful. We caught about 20-25 fish but some were protected. He was skilled in filleting the 13 we kept. Captain Lucas was excellent with my 11 year old nephew and adult handicapped niece, meeting their needs. Thank you Captain Lucas we look forward to our next voyage. The Frye family

    Amazing Family Fishing Experience with Captain Lucas! 🎣⭐️

    3 Hour Trip – Inshore - 5:00 PM4 adults2 children

    We had such an amazing time fishing with Captain Lucas! He was incredibly friendly, kind, and especially wonderful with our kids. He made them feel comfortable, excited, and involved throughout the whole trip. 🎣❤️ Our boys had SO much fun that they were already asking to come back and fish with him again tomorrow! 😂🎣 Thank you, Lucas, for making this such a fun and memorable experience for our family. We highly recommend Florida Man Fishing Charters and would definitely come back! 🙌

    Great fishing, even better captain

    3 Hour Trip – Inshore5 adults

    We had an awesome time fishing with Captain Lucas! We spent the day fishing over the reef and caught a ton of fish. The highlight of the trip was hooking into a big king mackerel while trolling—it was an incredible fight and an experience I won't forget. Captain Lucas was knowledgeable, friendly, and worked hard to keep us on the fish all day. You can tell he knows these waters inside and out, and he made the trip fun from start to finish. If you're looking for a great fishing charter with an experienced captain who knows how to put you on the fish, I highly recommend Captain Lucas. I'll definitely be booking another trip!

    Great Fishing Experience and Much More

    4 Hour Trip – Bottom Fishing3 adults1 child

    Captain Lucas met us at the dock ready to get to the fishing grounds. Its a short trip to the inlet and we were setting lines in the water within 20 minutes of shoving off from the dock, including a quick stop at the marina. (I recommend getting some live bait) After getting the live bait hooked and set we (myself and 2 sons 15/10) began to jig while the captain, and my 10 year old, intently watched the live bait lines. We caught fish almost immediately on the live bait and not too soon after on the jigs. The boys even had a double up. It was quite the experience to land a Kingfish by jigging your own line off the boat. We landed a bunch of Bonita (not edible, but were a blast to catch), a Kingfish, a mn Almaco Jack, and we made eye contact with a Blackfin Tuna before we quick released it at the boat. (That’s the story I’m going with) After successful bottom fishing (and some tired anglers), Captain Lucas started trolling for the trophy fish. This didn’t yield the results we were all hoping for, but I will say that I’ve never seen a Captain work so hard to catch that one last fish. Without a doubt Captain Lucas is one of the hardest working Captains around, and I think he wanted to catch that last fish more than we did. On top of the fishing, Captain Lucas answered all the questions we asked, and we asked a lot. He explained to us all about the fish we were catching, trying to catch, and even fish that we werent looking for. He knew all about the area, as he is a life long resident of the area. Next time we are in the area we will be booking again with Captain Lucas and Florida Man Fishing Charters.

    Amazing trip

    6 Hour Trip – Inshore - 5:00 PM4 adults2 children

    Captain Lucas gave our family an absolutely incredible fishing trip, and I can't recommend him highly enough. From the moment we got on the boat, he went above and beyond to make sure everyone had a great time—especially our two kids. He was incredibly attentive to them throughout the trip. When the fishing slowed down, he didn't just wait for the next bite. He kept our 9-year-old daughter completely engaged by showing her the tiny crabs, shrimp, and other sea life living in the seaweed. She was fascinated, and it's something she'll be talking about for a long time. He was also extremely knowledgeable about every fish we caught. Instead of just unhooking them and moving on, he took the time to share interesting facts and little tidbits about each species, turning the trip into a fun learning experience for our kids. It was obvious that he genuinely enjoys teaching and sharing his passion for the water. On top of all that, Captain Lucas was one of the friendliest, most personable captains we've ever met. He made everyone feel welcome, was patient, easy to talk to, and clearly cared about making sure our family had an unforgettable experience. If you're looking for a captain who is fantastic with kids, incredibly knowledgeable, and genuinely loves what he does, Captain Lucas is the one to book. We had an amazing time and will absolutely be back the next time we're in the area!

    Come for the fish stay for the captain!

    6 Hour Trip – Bottom Fishing4 adults

    We had an awesome experience on our fishing trip. The captain was amazing — super knowledgeable, friendly, and he literally answered every single question we had. Any fish we pulled up, he knew exactly what it was and had something interesting to say about it. You could tell he really knew his stuff and enjoyed sharing it with us. We ended up catching around 10 different types of fish, which was really cool. Unfortunately, most of them were protected so we could only keep a couple, including mahi-mahi, but honestly the whole experience was worth it either way. We even got to see sea turtles, which made the trip even better. Even if you don’t catch a ton of fish, the captain makes the trip fun and memorable. The whole experience was awesome, and I’d definitely recommend booking with him.
