My buddy and I had an amazing experience overall. The guide was fantastic—knowledgeable, friendly, and highly experienced on the water. He truly knows the waterways inside and out. I highly recommend him, especially for first-time boat anglers like myself.

Captain Brad’s expertise made for an incredible day on the water! He knew exactly where to find the fish, and we had a blast reeling them in. We caught Snook, Redfish, Ladyfish, and Trout—an unbelievable total of 52 fish!

We even managed to reel in a shark!

Fantastic trip with an excellent boat and crew! My boys (pictured above) are beginners, and they received all the guidance and support needed to have an amazing time. Captain Brad knew exactly where to go, and we were reeling in fish within minutes of arriving at the spot. Everyone caught multiple fish, including a few big ones! The boat was well-maintained and fully equipped with everything we needed. Truly a top-notch experience!

The crew was incredibly friendly and helpful! They taught us a lot about fishing in the sea and what to watch for while out on the water. In just a few hours, we caught several sharks! The equipment was top-notch, and the crew worked hard to maximize our catch within the time we had. Highly recommend this experience!
