Great trip!

4 Hour Trip – Sunrise Special (AM)4 adults

We had a group of 4 and had a great time! Max was an awesome captain and his co captain Ralph was awesome and funny!!! They always made sure we had live bait on our hooks and they made sure we knew what we were doing. We moved to a few different spots and we all caught many species of fish including bonnet sharks, trout, mangrove snapper, needle fish and a few others. Max also got us some mangos off a tree hahah. I would 10/10 recommend this trip for anyone looking for a fun trip.

    2 Hour Trip – Sunset Shorty • 4 adults • 1 child

    Captain Max and Mr Ralph were awesome. we call catfish, we caught an angel fish a Lady fish some trout and my 12-year-old caught a shark! the best part of the trip was when my 12-year-old caught the shark and even Captain Max and Mr Ralph were just as excited as we were. They were friendly and very knowledgeable. They definitely have customers for life!

    Fish and Fun

    2 Hour Trip – Shorty • 4 adults • 2 children

    Max and Ralph were great. We brought our 10 and 12 year old out with us. They have fished a lot back home with limited success and very little knowledge. We all learned a little and had a great time. Caught a lot of different fish. Got some fun photos and we’d highly recomend these guys! thanks for the good time!

    Great trip

    2 Hour Trip – Shorty • 2 adults

    We all enjoyed fishing with Captain Max and his assistant, Ralph. Both were patient and helpful, making the experience easy and fun. My wife, who was fishing for the first time, had the help she needed to fully participate. We got to fish in several different locations and caught a variety of fish. While some had to be thrown back, we came home with enough sea trout for dinner. The boat was very clean. Even the musical selections were great!

    Amazing Trip, Caught lots of fish!!

    2 Hour Trip – Shorty - 10:00 AM • 4 adults • 2 children

    Thank you to Capt. Max and our 1st mate. Both gentlemen were incredible hosts and showed us a great time. We caught lots of different fish including a shark. I loved how our captain changes spots quickly if a location slows the biting activity. We were constantly catching fish the entire time and we plan on booking with this captain again. What a fantastic birthday this was for my 7 year old. It made his day!
