Steve is an awesome dude! Real down to earth and most importantly knows where to catch fish. Did an inshore 4 hour trip with my wife and father and was well worth the money! Really nice boat and tackle. Caught snook, a keeper red fish and some other species. Was a great time and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Steve to anyone. Thanks again!

November 22, 2024

Holy cow! What a great trip! Captain Steve took great care of us. Steve took great care of my (new to fishing) wife and made sure she was comfortable and always ready to catch another! He put us on lots of fish and we took home lots of grunt and snapper to have for dinner. We dug for clams and I got to hand feed snook. Definitely a remarkable trip! Can't wait to come back!

Went fishing with capt Steve for tarpon. He was so knowledgeable and knew the tide wouldn’t be right for about 45 minutes so we stopped at a private beach and looked for shells and shark teeth the water was SO clear it was Beautiful. Once we got fishing I got hooked up within minutes. Had never caught a tarpon before Steve walked me threw what to do and we successfully fought and landed the fish! SO much fun thank you capt for such a great experience and memories!!
