The trip exceeded our expectations, which were already very high after reading all the glowing reviews! Despite our limited experience, we had about two dozen catches.  Captain Mark patiently helped my teenage sons improve their techniques and explained the “why” behind his choice of spots. Beyond the fishing, we appreciated the easy access from Ocala.  Another unexpected bonus was the scenery as we made our way in the boat from the launch point on a tributary to the main... More

Captain Mark was a good guide. Even though it was very windy and the waves were very choppy, he kept us in place when we needed to and had us drift through certain parts of the bay. He got us on some fish. It was my son’s 25th birthday and he was pumped that he caught a variety of fish. Trout, flounder, sea bass, mackerel, pompano, and sheephead. Good conversation. Cold water and Gatorade. Cleaned the fish quickly, and made recommendations on how to cook them. I’m using him again.

My two sons and I enjoyed a great time on the water with Captain Mark. We caught 12 different species on the day and made some awesome memories. Captain Mark got us to the fish and even though things were a little slow overall, we kept catching some. Other boats that we’re communicating were not having much luck but we ended up with plenty of fish in the cooler. Thanks Captain Mark for a wonderful day on the water.

Absolutely great time! I don’t know how captin Mark could have done any better. The trip felt like we went out fishing with family. He showed our 10 and 5 year some fish tips and got them lots of fish on the line. He’s great with kids. Even made me feel comfortable peeing in a bucket! If you’re looking for a good fishing trip, you have to book with Captin Mark.
