What an awesome morning on the water with Captain Ariel!  From the moment we left the dock, it was clear he knew exactly what he was doing.

We had two teenagers in our group with very little fishing experience, and Captain Ariel was incredibly patient.  He took the time to teach them the basics, explain different techniques, and made sure they were having fun every step of the way.

Despite the Florida heat, we caught a great variety of fish.  Captain Ariel knew exactly when a spot had produced all it was going to and didn’t waste our time, he kept us moving to productive locations, which kept the action going all morning.

If you’re looking for a captain who is knowledgeable, works hard to put you on fish, and genuinely enjoys helping everyone have a great experience, whether you’re a seasoned angler or a first-timer, I highly recommend booking a trip with Captain Ariel. We’ll definitely be back!

We had a great trip today despite super cold, windy, and rough conditions. Our captain worked tirelessly to move us to different spots, keep us out of the worst of the weather, and still put us on fish. He stayed positive the entire time and was fantastic with our family. Truly a hardworking, professional captain — we would absolutely book again.

Captain Ariel has tons of experience and put us on the Fish. We had nonstop action we caught Spanish, mackerel, trout, lighting, and tons of catfish I asked about mangrove snapper and he took us to a spot where we caught three keepers and then he recommended island Café where they cooked our catch and it was outstanding.

Our trip was perfect. The captain made sure we were comfortable and catching fish the whole time. I think we caught one of everything that was out there and left with a cooler full of fillets for dinner. The captain made sure my son caught his dream fish, a snook, before we finished our day. We caught numerous sea trout, several large red fish, black drum, a shark, numerous pompanos, a giant jack and several others. We will be back for sure!

What can I say, we booked this as a “family trip” and it was one of the best charters I’ve been on. A great way to see the Everglades most won’t. We caught over 10 species and easily 40-50 fish. Understand not every trip is like that but he put us on the fish non-stop.  We kept a couple nice Mackerel and took them to a nearby cafe where they grilled them for lunch. Don’t pass this one by!
