FISHING ALWAYS GOOD..CATHING IS ALWAYS A CRAP SHOOT

Half Day Trip (AM)3 adults

As a fisherman, I know that the catching part of the fishing relies on a number of factors. The negative factors were in play when my son-in-law and grandson went fishing for Mango Snappers in September 2021 with Captain Charlton, including how we were holding our mouths while fishing.(That's an oldy but goodie) My point! It was a great day of fishing. Captain Charlton was determined to get us on the fish. I know my back couldn't have outlasted the number of times he raised the anchor to move us into position. Alas! It was not to be. But that fact will not keep me from coming back. His professional and genuine interest in his charges were outstanding. His knowledge of the area and the fishing possibilities we excellent. The inability of matching school and work schedules made it impossible to schedule another outing with the Captain during the remaining time I was in Florida. Next Time! Lord willing and global warming want flood downtown Tampa.

    very great trip

    Quarter day • 4 adults • 2 children

    The captain was incredibly knowledgeable and provided us with the exact instructions on how to catch the fish. We ended up with a diverse catch, including a stingray, which was an incredible experience. He was also very patient and attentive to the children, making the trip enjoyable for everyone. I would definitely book with him again.

    Response from Captain

    Thank you. I’m glad y’all had fun.

    The Captain was great with the kids. He really seems to know the area well and has been doing this for quite a while. I would highly recommend for families.

    Captain Tom was fantastic very kid friendly fishing trip

    Kids, Beginners and Fun Cruisers • 3 adults • 2 children

    Our trip was awesome, we didn't catch any keepers not for a lack of trying, my boys (11 &10) had a wonderful time. Captain Tom was very patient with my boys playful too, he made the trip real fun for them. We did catch a bunch of fish but the big one got away! We had a wonderful time I would highly recommend this trip for anybody with kids or beginners, book your trip and enjoy your time!
