I had an absolute great fishing trip with Captain Jemel. The weather the day before was really rainy and made the water very cloudy. He persevered and Captain Jemel put me on schools of trout and angel fish, a couple real nice redfish and snook, as well as school of grey snapper. We fished several spots and the action was good the entire time. I will definitely be booking another charter with Captain Jemel and bring my kids out this time. I know they will have a blast.

Had an amazing time with Captain Jemel, we did a half day morning trip today and it was a blast! It was me, my son (16 yo) and daughter (14 yo) - Captain Jemel was awesome - calm, friendly, super knowledgeable and worked hard to make sure our trip was enjoyable. We caught a lot of different fish, learned a lot, saw lots of dolphins, and left with a few nice fish to take home and enjoy for dinner! Highly recommend Black Irish Charters - we will be back again and you will be happy you booked! Worth every penny - get out and enjoy Florida!! Thanks Jemel - you are a top notch captain and we’re so fun to be on the water with. Great job!

Always a great time on the water with Captain Jemel, 2nd trip with him And he never fails to deliver, great captain and an even better person. Thank you cap!

Before we stepped off to go fishing, Jemel gave us a rundown of where all of the equipment was on his boat and had poles ready for us to use with some bait. He is very knowledgeable and was eager to help with any snags we had out fishing. He even gave a class on how to properly put bait on the hook. Jemel took us to a beautiful area where there was plenty of fish and dolphins!! Great vibes and music! Will be seeing him again. Veteran friendly!!!
