Great experience. Great captain. Caught all kinds of fish . Overall just had a really good day. Highly recommend
September 6, 2025
We had a great time caught 3-4 different fish and I don’t think over our 3 hour trip that there was more then a minute of no action at a time. Hank was great.

My wife and I had a fantastic time.
September 6, 2025
Everything was easy and hassle-free with Hank from start to finish, and the fishing was fun! We had a short boat ride to the reefs and stopped at many great spots. I don't think I went longer than two minutes without taking a bite of some type. There are a ton of interesting species, and many are tasty as well. We chose to save what we could and did enjoy doing so!
September 6, 2025
We had a great day on the water with capt hank and his first mate havi. The wind was calm so we headed off shore about 6 miles to do some reef fishing and did great!
September 6, 2025
We had an awesome time fishing with Hank!! He worked hard to get us on some fish even on a windy day!! Would highly recommend him and will be going again next year!!
