Ratings & Reviews Summary

Captain Mitch was fantastic! We began catching fish right from the first cast. Opting for a full-day trip, we enjoyed plentiful catches throughout the day. We even had to replenish our bait supplies twice, fishing until we exhausted our bait the third time. I wholeheartedly endorse Florida Cracker Charters. Mitch, if you happen to come across this, "Thank you once again for everything!"

Two of us landed our personal record Speckled Trout, a species we've frequently caught back home. During our excursion, one of our crew members had the exhilarating experience of hooking into a massive Tarpon. Although we only got to witness two breathtaking jumps before the majestic creature broke free, it made for an unforgettable moment! Despite it being a last-minute decision and a hot day with sparse fish, this trip will be remembered fondly. Grateful to the captain for the adventure!
