We had an excellent trip with Captain Brad! I’ve booked with him several times and highly recommend his services. This time, my wife, oldest daughter, and two grandchildren joined me—and everyone had a fantastic experience. Captain Brad’s knowledge of Gulf fishing is top-notch, and he had us on the fish quickly. The ride out was smooth and fast, thanks to the twin 200HP Evinrude engines powering the boat.

We’re from out of state, and my fiancé has always wanted to go on a fishing charter. I looked through dozens of options, but none stood out—until I found this one. When I tried to book, it showed the trips were full and needed approval. I explained why the trip was so important to us, and within 10 minutes, it was confirmed—we were in! I tried to keep it a surprise, but that didn’t last long! When we arrived, everything was ready to go. We didn’t have to lift a finger—just show up and enjoy. My teenage daughter wasn’t excited at first, but Captain Brad made it his mission to get her smiling before the day was over. At our first stop, he tested the waters, quickly hooked a fish, and handed the rod to my fiancé, who reeled in his very first catch! The rest of us got set up, and within seconds, we all had fish on the line—and yes, my daughter was smiling! The action didn’t stop there. We visited several spots to see what else we could catch and even took some time to watch dolphins. We ended up catching enough for dinner and even extra to take home. Captain Brad took care of all the cleaning while we relaxed. It was truly an amazing experience, and we’ll definitely be booking again. My fiancé said it was his best birthday ever—and it was all thanks to this unforgettable trip. I highly recommend this charter to anyone, especially first-timers looking for a fun, welcoming, and successful day on the water!

We started with a half-day eco tour, since our 10-year-old daughter is passionate about saving the planet and our 6-year-old son is all about catching everything in it! Captain Brad delivered a perfect balance for both—mixing a couple of hours of fishing with some fun exploration. We caught enough snapper for a delicious dinner and even stopped at a great spot for swimming. Captain Brad took care of cleaning all the fish, which made it super easy to cook back at our hotel. We’ll definitely be booking with him again next time we’re in town!

Went on a Shelling and Shark Tooth Cruise with Captain Brad, Yvette and Griswold. We had an amazing time. They were accommodating, friendly and you could tell they take pleasure in making sure you have a good time. They also are very great at communicating about the details leading up to the trip and took pics while we were out and shared them with us after. And we found sooo many shark teeth! We will be looking at booking with them when we return to Venice next year.
