Good day offshore. seas were awesome. weather was perfect
Today was a bit sporty, but still managed to bring home dinner
In Vero Beach, FL, we embarked on a catfishing adventure and had the exhilarating experience of catching some impressive beasts. The excitement of reeling in these formidable catfish added a memorable touch to our day. Each catch showcased the thrill of the fishing expedition, making it a truly unforgettable outing. It's not just about the catch; the catch-and-release approach ensured the continued thriving of these magnificent creatures in the local waters. Our time in Vero Beach left us with lasting memories of both the excitement of the catch and the responsible practice of releasing these impressive catfish.
Seas where a but soorty, water temp 83. Kings on ard fire. Caught a few mangroves also.

Captain Justin is fantastic – this is our second trip with him, and we had an amazing time. He knows exactly where to find the fish and has top-notch equipment. His boats are ideal for the ocean, and we’ll definitely be back for another fishing trip in the future! My son had a blast too – a bird even landed on him while fishing, and he thought it was hilarious. We had an unforgettable time!

I and we have taken alot of charters in Brevard county none of which come close to Justin’s level of professionalism and hard work. He always has one goal in mind and that’s to make his clients happy and catch fish! We have taken our kids out and he is more than willing to help young children as well as share his skills and knowledge with adult fishermen and fisherwomen!! We would not consider going out with any other charter Justin is the best!!
