We booked a trip with Charlie during our stay in Cape Coral - and to be honest, we have been on other fishing charters and didnโt have much success so we had really hoped this would be different. And it was! I have two sons (11 and 14) and while they like to fish back home in Kentucky it just isnโt the same as fishing in Florida. They really worried they wouldnโt โreally get to fishโ by being able to cast their own lines and reel the fish in themselves. This has been an issue on past tripsโฆ...but Charlie showed them how to do it correctly and really let them experience it all - guiding them them as he needed to along the way.We caught so many fish!!! We caught snapper, snook and drum and my boys had a blast! Charlie was personable and so knowledgeable. He let us be playful as a family (we had a $50 bet going for a 35 inch fish or biggerโฆ...) and he played along encouraging the boys to catch the biggest fish they could - making sure to measure each one for them to see if they could get the big pay day!ย I (mom) only fished a little bit by choice but I did enjoy the boat ride, the sun and seeing dolphins out in the water. After the trip I asked my boys if they FINALLY enjoyed a fishing charter and my 11 year old said the fishing was great but his favorite thing was Charlie himself as he described him as โso chillโ (which translates to a great guide in adult terms!)ย We typically vacation at different spots each year as a family but I wouldnโt be surprised if my boys talk me into a 2nd trip with Charlie sometime soon! Highly recommend this trip if you are looking for a great family day on the water.
