Amazing day catching! Arms are sore and fish were plentiful! A great day fishing with Captain Johnny! His knowledge and experience are one of the best I know!

Captain Johan delivered us a genuine fishing experience. The boat was kept clean, the crew was friendly. That's right. My sons enjoyed themselves so much that they are simply asking if I can go again to see it (well, so am I). It turns out that you can catch the biggest fish in the little estuaries there. We caught a slam, and our hopes were exceeded.

A great day out on the charter boat with Captain Johnny. We had a wonderful outing! The weather was nice and Captain Johnny was an excellent guide. He knew the best spots on Riviera Bay. Johnny appeared very knowledgeable and made me feel secure while on the charter. This was especially gratifying since I have an irrational fear of water. Special service, great music, and an awesome ride awaited me.
