We've been on a lot of fishing charters, and Ana Banana is definitely one of the best. The crew was polite to all of us, and we caught plenty of fish. You really can't ask for much more when booking a fishing charter!

First Mate Todd and Captain Joel were fantastic!

November 12, 2024

We began tarpon fishing shortly after arriving at 4:00 PM for a four-hour trip. Five and a half hours later, we returned to the boat after an unforgettable battle as our son fought a 6-foot, 150-pound tarpon for over 90 minutes. Captain Joel and First Mate Todd were incredible, educating us throughout the night and patiently guiding us the entire time. Even though it was a late night for them, they were more than happy to stay and see it through to the end. If you get the chance to fish with these guys, don't hesitate—you won't regret it!
