Awesome fishing charter!! Kids really love going with him and we always catch solid fish. Highly recommend

June 30, 2025

Four of us booked a 2 day offshore charter and chose the all-inclusive package. We made a great choice. The Bertrand’s have a beautiful home and are very hospitable. The accommodations are impeccable. Erica’s kitchen is the place to be for a great homemade snack and fantastic meals before and after the charter. James is a skilled Captain and will put you on the fish. Can’t wait to do it again!

June 30, 2025

We had so much fun on out inshore trip, and Captain James and Marcus made everything so easy, even if the fish were slow at first because of the weather. Captain James kept trying different baits, fishing spots, and tactics until we got on the fish. We will definitely be booking future fishing trips with Blue Water Charters, LLC!

We had the best experience with James and his wife. They went above and beyond to help us book and charter to the dunes. Everything was amazing except the jellyfish stings. The large jellies were neat to see and touch. We can not wait to book a fishing trip in February with Blue Water Charters!
