What a great way to celebrate my birthday! Capt Craig and First Mate Donnie had us on the fish 30 seconds after hooks in the water! My husband and I had such a great time! These guys know their stuff and really went out of their way to make sure we had fun and caught fish. Well done on both counts, highly recommend

Despite the initially unpromising skies, Captain Craig made a wise decision to delay our departure from 7 A.M. to 9 A.M. and it proved to be the right call. Once Donnie, our skilled mate, set the anchor, the fish started biting relentlessly. Over the course of six hours, we successfully caught an impressive array of 26 different fish species, making it a truly memorable day on the water. We extend our sincere gratitude to Captain Craig for providing my son, his friend, and me with an exceptional fishing experience, and we eagerly look forward to booking another adventure with Fun In The Sun Charters during our next visit.

Captain Craig and his deckhand, Donnie, exceeded our expectations during our fishing trip with Fun In The Sun Charters. Their extensive knowledge, professionalism, and commitment to safety were truly impressive. Despite my limited fishing experience (only being my third charter), Captain Craig and Donnie made me feel at ease and immediately put me on fish. They patiently guided me through various fishing techniques and even took the time to bait my hook, a gesture that I genuinely appreciated. We were fortunate to have a successful day of fishing, catching plenty of fish and encountering various species. Thank you, Captain Craig and Donnie, for an exceptional experience. We are already eagerly planning our next trip with you!
