    Bucket list sailfish landed!

    Full Day Offshore • 2 adults

    Hillbilly Hookers and its crew absolutely delivered out on the water today. We landed a beautiful Atlantic Sailfish along with some amazing Yellowfin Tuna. The captain and his son were fantastic and made the day a memory we won't forget. If you want a great day on the water this is your charter!

    Great day in the Dry Tortugas

    Dry Tortugas Family Trip • 5 adults

    Our family had a great day trip to the Dry Tortugas with Hillbilly Hookers. They allowed us the flexibility to leave a little later (which was key for our teenagers), and we spent time at Fort Jefferson and snorkeling off of Loggerhead Key and at a shipwreck nearby. We finished the day with a couple hours of what was described as “mild fishing,” but everybody caught fish (mostly grouper) and our middle kid hauled in a good size amberjack that he fought for a bit. All in all, it was a great day, and the crew (Austin and Elijah) made it a fun day as well. Thank you to the Hillbilly Hooker team!

    Reported catch:

    Hooked fish on the first cast of the day. Our guide Austin was knowledgeable, professional and most of all fun. We were on fish all day. We will definitely be booking another trip with Hillbilly Hookers and Austin!!

    We had a fun day on the water with Capt Andrew. There was weather in the area but we were able to steer clear and still put snapper, grouper, and pompano on the deck. I wouldn’t hesitate to book a trip with him again.
