Great Day on the Water

3/4 Day Trip4 adults

My wife, two teenage daughters and I had a great time with Captain Jonathan. He was very accommodating and personable. We caught a ton of species including shark, ladyfish, trout and even hooked into a tarpon. While the boat doesn’t have a head we were never more than 10 minutes from the dock if someone had to go. I’d definitely recommend this charter and the 3/4 trip was the perfect amount if time!

    Stop looking! This is the charter you want.

    Family Fun Fishing 4hr • 3 adults

    Yesterday (July 13) was our 2nd time using Captain Johnathan and Red Snarpon for a 4-hour shark fishing charter, and once again he did not disappoint. He's extremely accommodating, friendly, professional, and the bottom line is simple: he delivers. Yesterday we caught 4 sharks total: 3 bulls and a nurse. Plus, we hooked a tarpon using catfish for bait believe it or not! It jumped twice but then spit out the hook. We also hooked some lady fish, snapper, and catfish. Last year we caught 3 bulls and a small lemon. He can make moody teenagers smile, and as a parent, that says a lot to me. 😁 I highly recommend Captain Johnathan and Red Snarpon Charters!

    Fantastic day on the water

    3/4 Day Trip • 4 adults • 1 child

    This was my second 3/4 day trip in 6 months with Jonathan of Red Snarpon Charters. The first was back in November for a guys trip with my 14-year old son, brother-in-law and father-in-law and just this week with my wife, son, and 11-year old daughter. Both trips were fantastic. Jonathan is a very easygoing captain, very hands on for baiting and releasing (for those that want that), and very knowledgeable of the area, the fish, and the wildlife. Both times we caught sharks (6 foot bull the first trip and two 5 ft black tips on the second trip). On both trips we caught a variety of cool fish including flounder, red snapper, redfish, trout, pompano, jack, stingray, and of course countless catfish and ladyfish. On this second trip, Jonathan was very attentive to my 11 year old daughter who has some emotional regulation challenges. She was upset that she wasn’t having a ton of luck in the first 30 minutes so he hooked her a fish which she was able to real in. Can’t say enough nice things about Jonathan and his easygoing but attentive manner. 100% would recommend Jonathan and Red Snarpon Charters for a guys trip or family outing!

    Perfect day

    Family Fun Fishing 4hr • 2 adults • 1 child

    My son and I were lucky enough to book with Captain Jonathan. It was my son‘s first time fishing in the ocean. We caught at least seven species. Saw multiple different areas and had a wonderful time. Captain Jonathan was able to work with my seven-year-old teaching him good technique and getting him on to fish. Cannot recommend highly enough.

    Fantastic!

    Half Day Trip Morning • 1 adult

    I had an absolutely fantastic time on this fishing trip—easily one of the most enjoyable experiences I’ve had in a long while. From the moment we pushed off, the captain set the tone: welcoming, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in making sure I had a great day on the water. The boat was comfortable and well-equipped, and the pacing of the entire trip felt effortless—never rushed, never slow, just the right rhythm for a perfect day. What made it truly special was how fun and hands-on everything felt. Whether it was learning small tips that instantly improved my cast or getting that burst of excitement when a line went tight, every moment had its own little spark. We pulled in a mix of fish throughout the day, and even when the action slowed, the scenery alone made it worth it. There’s something about being out on open water that resets you—and this trip delivered that feeling in the best way. By the time we headed back, I was already thinking about when I could do it again. If you’re looking for a trip that balances relaxation, fun, and just enough adventure, this is the one. Highly recommend

    Amazing experience!

    Family Fun Fish, Shell, Dolphin • 4 adults • 3 children

    Our trip was absolutely amazing. Captain John had incredible expertise and patience with our novice fishing family. We ended up catching approximately 30 fish in 3 hours. Plus our kids LOVED the boat ride. Captain told us a nee boat is on the way too! we will be back for another great tour. This is a great family experience.
