Had a wonderful time fishing with Dexter. He was fun, informative and above all a true gentleman host . Highly recommend him. You won’t be disappointed

We had the best time fishing with Capt. Early this morning! He was totally focused on our 8 y/o daughter & making sure that she was reeling them in! I highly recommend booking your fishing experience with him. He knows the area from Pensacola all the way to Panama City. We will definitely be booking with him again.

Couldn’t ask for more from a chartered trip. Beautiful day and pulled in plenty of fish. More than a great guide, Captain Dexter is a warm-hearted thoughtful gentleman who genuinely likes people and loves putting them on fish. Don’t know how he stays excited about landing redfish after all the time he’s been doing this, but he truly was. My wife came along for the ride almost as an afterthought and came off the water delighted to have had the opportunity to spend the time. A true pleasure to be on the boat with him, and next trip will bring along my teenage kids. A solid 5 stars.

Captain Dexter was a great guide for us this morning. He knew right where to take us to reel in some beautiful trout and redfish. Would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a seasoned fishing charter. Looking forward to next time!
