Half Day Trip with family & Captain Christopher

Half Day Trip (PM)5 adults2 children

What a great time fishing! Not only was Captain Christopher’s knowledge of the area and best spots to fish near and far amazing but his great patience with the kids we brought with us youngest of which were 6 & 10 was also amazing and greatly appreciated. He showed them how it was done kindly corrected them when they needed to do something different and bountifully commended them for a job well done. As a result even the 6 year old had a great time and caught lots of fish. Captain even went a little farther than usual to find is a really great spot and stayed a little longer to help us catch our limit… had lots of oversized and undersized due to the narrow slot for specs right now but we had an amazing time. Highly recommend this kind gentleman and family man. He’s a gem and will call him again if I’m in the area and recommend him to others.

    Knowledgeable, Patient, and Hard-Working

    Redfish Hunt5 adults1 child

    While we fared through the windy conditions, Captain Chris hung with us and tried many locations and different baits. He was patient with a Minnesota crew that included three kids under 16 and took the time to help teach us not just about fishing but about the ecosystem and wildlife around us. We may not have caught loads of fish, but Captain Chris tried his hardest, and we did leave for "home" with enough to enjoy for fish tacos with our group. We had a great time and I'd definitely book with Captain Chris again. Thanks, Chris!

    Easily one of the best!!

    Redfish Hunt3 adults

    Captain Chris Cole was an educator and a master angler. We were on fish within 30 minutes. Hit limits on trout and got some beautiful Reds. Book the half day and felt like a full day. Really good guy and we'll worth the investment. I strongly recommend.

    Awesome Afternoon With Capt. Chris

    Half Day Trip (PM)4 adults1 child

    Friendly and knowledgeable captain who loves kids. Had no problem catching many fish on a windy summer midday. If you've never been to the bay for fishing, Captain Chris will make the experience worthwhile. After the catch, he cleaned the fish and even gave us a recipe. We highly recommend Down South and will be contacting them for future trips for sure.
