Captain Leon put us right on the fish! He worked tirelessly to ensure we had a fantastic outing. We caught plenty of Red Snapper and even landed a massive 10-foot shark. While fishing always has its uncertainties, Captain Leon knew exactly what he was doing, where to go, and provided us with an incredible opportunity that paid off. Thank you!

Captain Leon did an excellent job and assisted everyone.

We had a fantastic time. Captain Leon got us on a bunch of big fish and some sharks. I’d give it a 10/10 and highly recommend it!

I booked a 6-hour trip from 8 AM to 2 PM on 6/23/24 with Captain Leon for my son and me, heading 10-20 miles offshore. Captain Leon was great to communicate with before the trip and stayed on top of the weather forecast. He texted the day before to suggest leaving an hour early due to potential weather issues. The captain was punctual, and we were on the water in no time. We quickly reached the reef and started catching fish right away. My son hooked three huge ones, nearly bending the rod in half. Though we didn’t land them, it was thrilling to watch. Captain Leon provided helpful tips during the fight, and his rod setup was perfect for the type of fishing we were doing. He also baited our hooks and handled the fish. Back at the dock, he filleted and bagged our catch, which made for a delicious Lane Snapper dinner.

My kids and their friends, aged 16 to 20, went on this trip and had a blast. They started by catching some bait, then decided to spend their 4-hour trip reeling in some impressive sharks instead of heading further out for other fish. They mentioned that the equipment was in great shape and ready to use, and Captain Leon kept them on the bite with only brief pauses between catches. They all had a fantastic time, and I’m looking forward to going out with Captain Leon myself.
