    Great Trip and Great Captain

    Joey Flats Fishing Everglades 5hr3 adults2 children

    I booked a trip with Captain Joey to celebrate my son‘s 13th birthday. He did a great job checking in with us before the trip. Everything we needed on the boat was ready to go. He did a great job explaining to us the history of the national park as well as sharing some stories of when he fished this area when he was younger. Every spot he took us to was a great spot for fishing. When the spot ran a little cold, he was ready to move onto the next spot. My son had a great birthday and so did his cousin who we also brought along for the trip. I can’t thank him enough. I highly recommend that you book your trip with Captain Joey.

    Response from Captain

    thank you so much Javier for that awesome review. I’m glad you guys had a really good time fishing Everglades national Park with me. It means a lot that the boys had a good time and your son had an awesome 13th birthday in the Florida Everglades. You guys did a phenomenal job of fishing in the backcountry and staying interested and as a team we all came together and put meat on the table by leaving with 8 nice snapper for dinner. i’m glad we caught a little bit of everything snook trout snapper ladyfish and even a puffer fish Javier, I really appreciate you guys taking the time to spend with me on a fishing trip in the Florida Everglades and I so glad you your son and your nephew shared a memorable 13th birthday with me. Thanks for participating. Hope to see you guys real soon Captain Joey.

    Great fishing experience with Joey

    Joey Flats Fishing Everglades 4hr2 adults

    We had a great time fishing with Joey. He worked very hard to help us catch fish and carefully explained the best fishing spots and how to cast. He was very friendly, patient, and knowledgeable throughout the trip. We really appreciated his effort and enjoyed the beautiful scenery of the Everglades as well. It was a memorable experience and I would definitely recommend this trip.

    Response from Captain

    Thank you so much, Mr. Nagai, it was definitely my pleasure to take you and your son out for your Everglades excursion. We had a phenomenal morning. You guys did really well catching all kinds of species like snook, trout and snapper. For the last hour of the trip it started raining heavily, so we started making our way back to the doc. We finally got to see the famous crocodile Fred. It was an awesome trip. Thank you so much, sir for choosing Joey Flats Fishing trips and I hope I see you guys real soon. Thanks for choosing me, Captain Joey.

    Best Fishing Expereince

    Joey Flats Fishing Everglades 5hr2 adults

    The mostbimportant aspectbof a fishimg excursion is the captain of your ship, and Captain Joey is hands down one of the most genuine and altruistic human beings I have ever met. He made my son and I feel right at home. He knew his territory lime the bavk of his hand and modified the trip to satisfy all of our goals which not only included catchimg several different species of fish but also experiencing the unique aspects of the Everglades. Captain Joey ensured that we coaught fish but also went above and beyond to make sure we made it to an Eco tour we had pre planned in the park. Because we were pushing our time limit to make it to the Eco tour, Captain Joey met us after we finished our Eco tour to give us fish that we had caught to take home to cook up that night! This was truly above and beyond what was expected of a guide! His actions illustrated his character and his business acumen! I would recommend Captain Joey to anybody 1000 times over!

    it was definitely my pleasure Mark to take you with your family out and experience my house the Florida Everglades and Everglades national Park. I think we had an amazing trip together, not only fishing but got to experience a lot of the birds, plants, insects, and animal life at the park has to offer. Once again, it was definitely my pleasure. I hope to see you and your family again sometime soon thanks Capt. Joey. joeyflatfishing.com
