  AMAZING

  5 Hour Snook & Tarpon - 9:00 AM on April 18, 2026 • 2 adults

  We had a great time with Dennis at Flat Bottom Charters. The guy flat out works hard. You can tell he genuinely cares about putting you on fish and making sure you have a good day. He’s constantly adjusting, moving spots, trying different approaches — whatever it takes. There’s no “just going through the motions” with him. He’s locked in the whole time and wants you to succeed. On top of that, he’s just an easy guy to be around. Laid back, patient, and focused on making sure everyone’s enjoying themselves. If you want someone who’s going to put in the effort and give you a real shot at a successful day, Dennis is definitely worth booking. I’d go out with him again without hesitation.

  My son caught an 80 pound Tarpon! It was EPIC!!!

  5 Hr – Night Time Tarpon & Snook - 4:00 PM on February 20, 2026 • 4 adults

  It was my 14-year-old son’s desire to take a trip to Florida for his February school break and charter boat to fish for Tarpon. He located Dennis who runs Flat Bottom Fishing Charters and we set up for a night time trip. Not only did we get Rite on the Phish and my son experienced a 45 minute fight with an 80 pound tarpon, but the way Dennis handled the entire experience was not just extremely professional, but also mind blowing fun! We had an absolute blast, and if anyone is thinking about charting a boat in the Fort Lauderdale area, I would recommend you jump on board with Dennis 10 times out of 10! I promise you, you will not be disappointed. Thank you, Dennis! Next time we are in the area, we will certainly jump on board again.

  Monster Tarpon!!

  5 Hr – Night Time Tarpon & Snook - 4:00 PM on December 31, 2025 • 2 adults

  This was the first time my son or I have been fishing for Tarpon. Its definitely a different experience than any other type of fishing. These are huge, hard-fighting, intelligent fish and if you have never fished them, you definitely someone skilled and knowledgeable like Capt Dennis to coach you through the process. With his help my son landed a huge 150lbs tarpon that fought for just shy of an hour. Heck of a fight, heck of a fish! It was good to see the love that Dennis has for these magnificent creatures and the care he took to ensure the fish was released unharmed. This was an experience my son and I will remember the rest of our lives!! Highly recommend!

  Big Tarpon!

  5 Hr – Night Time Tarpon & Snook - 6:00 PM on April 9, 2026 • 2 adults

  Captain Dennis was great we started on some smaller fish like snapper and blue runner, once the sun went down we got on some big tarpon! No shortage of finding the fish and he had was excited to find the fish and he was able to tell me little brother exactly how to use the rod and how to retrive. Very knowledgeable and I highly suggest.
