Phil was fantastic. We caught our limit on Red Fish on a challenging, windy day. Phil was very encouraging with our younger fisherman. We had a blast!

While we only were able to keep two mangrove snappers, we were able to catch a lot of fish. Due to the red tide in the bay, a lot of the larger fish fled to healthier waters. Capt Phil made the most of our trip and we tried in numerous spots. He made the experience fun for my son and myself despite the lack of large fish.

Despite challenging conditions Capt Phil put us on the fish. Caught a limit of redfish in a hurry. We also caught many redfish well over slot. We fished in a variety of locations all over the bay. Capt. Phil was patient but knew when it was time to change things up. Capt. Phil was helpful and knowledgeable.
