Ratings & Reviews Summary
December 4, 2025
Dan (the owner) could not have been more accommodating and kind hearted. Our family was in a bind and he really showed that their are still good hearted humans out there. Thank you again Dan for being a great human. Chase and Willis were our crew members and they made us feel like we were on a yacht with their wonderful customer service and accommodations. The boat was so beautiful and reminded me of my late grandfather's boat. Thank yall again for everything. Highly recommend

Had an amazing trip this weekend will definitely be back with this charter! Awesome owner and deck hand!

Great experience! Danny squeezed us in at the last minute since we had trouble booking online with another company. Then, day of the trip the boat we were going to go on had an engine issue and Danny got us on the Gambler which was a much bigger boat. He was fair about the slight price increase due to it being a larger boat. The Captain was right on the fish when we got out there, and the two deck hands Andrew and Chelsea were great. Limited on snapper fairly quick, and tried for a shark but came up empty handed. Thank you Danny and the Gambler crew!

I honestly can’t praise this company enough, they saved our fishing trip after a different charter canceled on us at 8:30 the night before. I was lucky enough to get ahold of Captain Danny and he took care of us as if we were family. We were scheduled to go on an 8 hour off shore on their 46ft vessel but he upgraded us to their 55ft yacht for no extra charge! Captain Chase and Larry guided our offshore trip, they worked their damnedest to get us into some snapper and we caught some monsters. We had so much fun overall that we booked a bay trip for the next day where we were lucky enough to get Captain James AKA (Grandpa). Grandpa made us all laugh harder than anyone has on any trip we’ve been on and helped me catch a 27inch Speckled Trout! So stop reading and book a dang trip.

We had a blast with Captain Doorman. We wanted to catch some good fish and he put me on the biggest AJ I will probably ever catch. We ended up with 3 solid AJs.
