Bobby Lavender is your captain! We’ve never experienced such a kind, generous and committed host. He called us the day before our charter and recommended changing our departure time in order for the children to enjoy cooler temperatures. He was spot on! It was dark as we pulled away from the pier (Bobby arrived exactly in-time, as promised) and soon we were watching the sunrise across the bay. Spectacular! Next, he took us to a “sweet spot” where he was confident the children (ages 5, 7 and 8) would experience the best fishing. Boy, was he on target. We pulled in a huge variety of fish and every catch was a joy. Bobby taught us so much. We also saw stingrays, sharks and dolphins. What?!? Yep, it was that good. We returned to the dock in time to say our goodbyes then head to breakfast to celebrate our stories. Bobby Lavender is a very special man and I’m so thankful we had this experience with him.

Captain Bobby was simply amazing! He not only helped bait our hooks, he helped with castling out and he shared his knowledge with us about how to fish. He gave us pointers and even showed us to help us better understand. My husband and I had great conversations with him and he was so kind and helpful! We will always book with him from now on!

I took my 7 yr old and 9 year old grandsons fishing. We would fish with Capt Bobby again.  We limited out on speckled trout and one grandson caught a 30.5” bull red (large red drum)

Can’t say enough about our experience with Captain Bobby Lavender. A lot can go wrong with booking a fishing trip, but Captain Bobby did everything in his power to get us on the water fishing on time with great bait and plenty of equipment to use for the trip. He made tackle recommendations for me because I was using my own gear and my girlfriend was using the gear he brought and it was in great shape and worked flawlessly. As soon as we got to our first stop we hooked up with some big Bull Reds and he gave advice and tips to land the fish with ease. We ended up both tagging two big bull reds and released 6 others to fight another day. We also caught a handful of speckled trout and were able to get one slot sized fish in the boat to bring home. The entire trip was enjoyable from start to finish and I can’t recommend him enough and I will definitely be booking again in the future!

Great captain, we immediately start catching fish. He knew exactly where to take us. Captain was very helpful.
