Great first trip

5-H Trip – Deep Sea Fishing Shared3 adults1 child

We left out at 2:30 pm and headed about 1 hour into the Gulf. Crew mates Jackson and Blake explained the strategy and then before you know it we were fishing. my 7 year old instantly caught trigger fish and ruby lip while older boy was cranking them in as fast at he could retrieve the 1lbs weight and sometimes 2 fish on the same drop! Jackson, Blake , and captain Aaron were awesome, very knowledgeable and very helpful! Multiple big fish were hooked up but only few mad it in. Overall a great time!

    Late to the boat

    6-H Trip – Deep Sea Fishing Shared10 adults4 children

    We had a few people who coukd not get out of bed for 730am. So we were running behind. We got a text at about 720 to make sure we were coming. Which made the trip seem personal. They did not just assume we were not coming. We had a large party of ten half should up just in time and the other half was 8 minutes late. the staff was very kind and did wait knowing we were on our way. we are so grateful they waited for us. We had a great time on the boat and caught a bunch of fish. The ride was rought and people definetly got sick as the ride out is about ine hour and 30 minutes. I would not reccomend taking this trip of you are easily prone to motion sickeness. Otherwise I would highly recommend this trip.

    Phenomenal experience!!

    6-H Trip – Deep Sea Fishing Shared3 adults

    This crew did a phenomenal job at making sure the customers were having a great time. Their willingness to help and interact with the clients definitely didnt go unseen. Special thank you to Mr Steve as he was a top class deck hand. His kindness in noticing my sister having a rough time not feeling well and made her whole trip in a quick hurry catching two red snappers. That was very much appreciated and wont be forgotten! We will definitely be booking with yall again! Keep up the great work!

    Amazing first time!

    6-H Trip – Deep Sea Fishing Shared13 adults4 children

    We had 13 in our group and all enjoyed ourselves! Nate was our favorite, he was ingaging, and had a great sense of humor. We will definitely be back to see the crew on the Sweet Jody! I would recommend this trip for kids over the age of 10 yrs old that are independent with most tasks and have some fishing experience. If you bring younger kids that require losts of help/engagement, be prepared to provide the support instead of fishing yourself. The fish are caught and then taken off by the crew members very quickly. This crew provided our novice fishing members plenty of support! Thanks guys! Best, B

    Amazing trip and the kindest captain and crew!!!

    5-H Trip – Deep Sea Fishing Shared2 adults

    Could not get better bang for your buck anywhere in florida. The ship is lovely and the captain and crew go above and beyond to ensure everyone on board is having the best time. The crew is there to help anyone of any skill level always moving around the whole boat to help everyone unhook their catch quickly so you can grt your lures back in the water to catch more fish. The captain keeps the boat moving and tells everyone how far off the bottom to fish so everyone always has the best chance to catch a fish. We came home with a TON of fish (even a red grouper!!) that the crew filleted for us on the docks. Definitely a memory we won’t soon forget:)
