Incredible fishing experience

Half Day Trip (AM)4 adults

I've been on many fishing trips in my past and my trip with Captain Rob may have been the best one yet. Me and my girlfriend were taking a day trip out to Tampa from Orlando and Captain Rob was very accomodating on our departure time. We arrived 30 minutes after our departure time yet he still honored our full 4 hour trip (even though he didn't have to). Captain Rob was a very experienced Captain, he knew where to start, And when to move. He chummed the water and took us to very secluded and scenic fishing spots. I believe we could 10+ snook, couple redfish, catfish, trout, and some others. Very friendly guy whos passion turned into a business. Overall one of the best experiences I've ever had fishing. Would recommend 10/10. Thanks for the trip Captain Rob, -Josh and Karine

    Captain Rob was very nice to go fishing with. He communicated well, was on time, and knew all the spots to go fishing. He was very friendly. Support a local veteran!

    What a great day fishing

    Half Day Trip (late morning) • 2 adults

    My son and I had a great day on the water. Capt Robert put us on a lot of fish. We caught trout, lady fish, and snook. Robert is very knowledgeable of the area and knows how to put you on the fish. Thanks again Robert!!

    Great Fishing Day!

    Half Day Trip (late morning) • 3 adults

    The water was rough due to weather. The Captain went out of his way to go around the waves and ger us on fish. One of our best fishing trips ever!

    Great Trip

    3 Hour Trip • 2 adults • 1 child

    Highly recommend Captain Robert for your fishing guide. He is very professional, yet super laid back and easy going. He was so accommodating when I wanted to spend a few minutes on the way to our fishing spot watching dolphins putting on a show for us. He was very good with my younger kids, and patient with 2 of us who are somewhat inexperienced fishermen. He made sure we were catching fish and cleaned them afterwards for us. He is extremely safe and knowledgeable about the waters he fishes in. I cannot recommend him enough and we will use him again when we are in the area. Thank you Captain Robert for a fabulous day on the water!
