Ratings & Reviews Summary

Captain Corey and Captain Derreck aka Chop did everything to put us on the fish. The boat was top notch as was the tackle and rods and reels. They knew all the honey holes and we hit em hard. Most of all, we began a great father’s day fishing tradition. . To the father’s, I know you have set the bait, cleared lines, re-tied knots, cleaned the fish, and all to teach tour young’ns the joy of fishing. Bravo, I did too. But when you want to relax, and actually fish yourself, let the pros like Chop and Corey do the heavy lifting. It was a totally different and much more joyful experience.

We swam with the sharks, we caught serval bull reds, and two sharks. We had a great time, the 4 hour trip went by so fast with all that action. Next time we will be booking a longer trip. Thanks Derrick.

Wanted to take my Dad out as he’s a retired Army Veteran. Decided last minute to book this trip12 hours before leaving the doc. The captain and hand on deck were friendly, professional, and we could tell they cared. My Dad and I have been fishing our whole lives but still learned a lot from them. If the photos don’t say enough… I highly recommend In The Zone Fishing Charter. Can’t wait for our next trip.
