I always have a great trip with Captain Kenny on the Game Changer. If there is fish out there he is going to put you on some. I’d recommend to anyone even if you’ve never gone fishing or been a hundred times. Be ready to yell “FISH ON!”

Awesome experience! Caught and released at least 20 amberjack. Caught Mahi on trip back to dock just for the heck of it . Caught 3 limits of red snapper also . Guide was excellent.

We had a wonderful trip! Captain Ken was absolutely great with my son (6 years old). We caught some beautiful Spanish Mackerel, Bluefish, and others. The dolphins were out in force and hung out by the boat for the first part of the day (taking some of our fish with them). We caught enough to feed our family of 7 with leftovers! Overall, I completely recommend it!
