Great personality, fantastic with the kids, and got us on the fish—couldn’t ask for anything more!

June 26, 2025

As a complete beginner, I booked our trip at a less-than-ideal time of day, but our captain made it a fantastic learning experience. I’d go early or in the evening next time (around 7 pm). While I wish the boat was larger for an ocean excursion further out, it was a great experience for the price. Toby brought live bait and was constantly attentive to our lines. He was awesome!

June 26, 2025

Captain Troy was an absolute pleasure—knowledgeable, fun, and incredibly personable! He also runs a fishing guide business in Alaska, and since we’ve been wanting to go for years, we’ll definitely reach out to him when we do make it up there. Thanks for an amazing experience, Troy! – Lori Klipfel

June 26, 2025

Captain John was fantastic—communicative, well-prepared, and great with my son. We caught fish, explored Port Canaveral, and enjoyed some great conversations. Wonderful memories from summer 2024!

June 26, 2025

Captain John was fantastic! He got us on the fish and was super helpful with my fiancé, who’s new to fishing. The mild waters made it an enjoyable trip for her, and catching a shark was an awesome bonus!

June 26, 2025

I planned this trip for my husband to unwind and enjoy himself, as fishing is truly his happy place. Living on a lake in KC, MO, I wanted to treat him to a full day of fishing. Captain Troy was incredible—he went above and beyond our expectations, showing patience, expertise, and taking us to all the best fishing spots. We caught some great fish, which he cleaned for us to take home, and even recommended a restaurant that would cook our catch. I highly recommend this charter for anyone wanting to experience ocean fishing without venturing too far out!
