Capt. Artie was fantastic. Unfortunately after an hour of fishing , bad weather came in and we had to head back to the dock. For the short time of fishing Capt Artie was putting us on fish . We waited it out at the dock ,but the radar showed continued bad weather. My daughter and her boyfriend and I enjoyed the time on the water . We will definitely re-book with him next trip down.

Captain Artie was great! The trip was for my son’s birthday and Artie kept us moving looking for the fish and keeping the kids engaged. With three of us he stayed busy and there was never any down time. Definitely recommend for targeting drum, flounder, sheepshead, and maybe even a shark if there’s no other bite. Thanks, Artie!

Captain Artie was amazing. we lit out and within 15 minutes we were catching croaker and flounder. Although it wasn’t flounder season and we couldn’t keep them it was still a great time. Then we scooted around some other spots and caught a few fish here and there. Then he put us on the red drum! That was so amazing to catch these big boys while fishing with my twin 20-year-old sons. We had a blast. This Captain knows what he’s doing so if you want a good fishing trip at a reasonable cost…... More
