Overall, we had a fantastic time on the trip! We planned it at the last minute and were uncertain about what to expect, especially since we’re accustomed to Florida charters where the action is non-stop. The captain was extremely friendly and respectful, even providing drinks for us during the outing. The first two hours were a bit slow, as we didn’t catch any fish or even touch a rod. If you choose this company, be aware that it’s more of a trolling charter, which involves a lot of sitting and waiting for bites rather than actively fishing. However, we did end up catching a few snook, a tarpon, a jack, and some smaller fish. The captain even extended our time a bit to take us past the fort for a water view. Ultimately, it turned into a really enjoyable day. I would recommend this charter, but just make sure it aligns with your fishing preferences to avoid any disappointment!

During our 4-hour excursion, we successfully caught Jack Crevalle, Snook, Tarpon, and Red Snapper. Mother Nature blessed us with a perfect day—there was a nice breeze and a bit of overcast, which kept us comfortable in the sun. We also spotted several iguanas lounging along the banks. Fishing inshore meant no seasickness for me, which was a huge plus! Captain Yorman was fantastic, making the experience even better. Thanks for a memorable day that my boys and I will cherish forever!

Captain Luis was absolutely incredible! He was friendly, kind, and incredibly knowledgeable, which made our trip truly unforgettable. My fiancé and I had the best experience we could have hoped for. Sending much love from New York!

Fishing with Yorman was an amazing experience! We managed to boat five fish, including tarpon, snook, barracuda, ladyfish, and even an unexpected grouper. While we lost four other nice catches, the adventure was still fantastic. We had a great time overall!
