Ratings & Reviews Summary
November 21, 2024
We had an incredible fishing experience! Our goal was to catch redfish, and the trip certainly lived up to our expectations. I've attempted to catch Redfish in five different states with various charters and individuals, but it was with Captain Joe Dennis that I finally succeeded. My daughter managed to reel in an 18-pounder, followed by another impressive catch weighing around 12 pounds. We also landed some of the biggest Speckled Trout we've ever seen! Captain Joe was always ready to assist us with re-baiting and getting our lines back in the water, which really improved our chances of a good catch. He even guided us to a fish market for cleaning our catch, and then to Water’s Edge Seafood Restaurant next door, where we enjoyed a fantastic lunch with our freshly caught fish. His judgment regarding the weather was absolutely perfect, making it an overall stellar day. We strongly recommend Captain Joe Dennis and his charter service for an outstanding inshore fishing experience. Cheers to the team!

Captain Joe was absolutely fantastic! He ventured out early to secure bait for our trip, and as a result, we ended up catching over 20 fish, including a magnificent bull red drum. While other charter boats were still busy catching bait, we were already having an incredible day! Captain Joe also did an excellent job with our kids.

Captain Joe was truly exceptional. We had excellent communication with him before our trip, and on the morning of the excursion, he even called to assess the wind conditions to ensure our comfort. To top it off, when we arrived at the boat, Captain Joe had already secured the bait. As soon as we reached his chosen fishing spot, we had fish biting within minutes, while we noticed other charter boats were still in search of bait. In the end, we managed to catch around 30 to 40 fish, and we were able to keep nine for a delicious meal. I wholeheartedly recommend Captain Joe, and I'm looking forward to booking another trip with him in the future.

Joe was an outstanding fishing charter captain. Among my dad, brother, and me, we managed to hook a total of 30 fish, of which we kept 11 for cut bait and a delicious meal. Our haul included trout, pinfish, red drum, and bluefish. Whether you're a novice or an experienced angler, this charter is a great choice because Joe is always ready to assist, whether it's your first time fishing or you're looking to improve your skills. Even my dad, who had never caught a fish before, ended up with the biggest catch of the day. When Joe advises you to be there at 6 am, it's definitely worth the early wake-up call – you'll reel in more fish that way.

Captain Joe had a knack for locating the fish – our family of four had an absolute blast, landing an impressive 50 to 60 fish! He displayed kindness and provided valuable guidance on catching, swiftly re-baited hooks, and even shared some mouthwatering cooking tips for our bountiful catch. Our cooler was overflowing with fish – it was an incredible experience!

Our day on the water with Captain J was truly amazing. Captain J kept in constant contact with me throughout the week, devising a plan after the recent hurricane. He skillfully guided us to the fish, and we had a fantastic day of fishing, reeling in approximately 40 fish, mainly striped bass with a few catfish in the mix. His expertise was evident, and we're eagerly looking forward to our next fishing adventure with Captain J. I highly recommend his services.
