Captain Sean was outstanding. If you’re fortunate enough to book a trip with him, there's no need to search elsewhere. We had no complaints whatsoever – it was a perfect day on the water, with a great boat, top-notch gear, and excellent local expertise. He’s our go-to captain every time.

Capt Sean is a friendly and personable individual and definitely knows the local waterways. Fishing was tough at the beginning, but it appeared that was the case for all boats around us. Capt Sean persevered and we caught 9 different species to include snook, red fish and trout. At the end of the day Capt Sean found where the trout were hiding and we loaded up on them. Enjoyed the trip very much and would recommend his service.

We had a fantastic time with Captain Sean Bradish at Renegade Sport Fishing! This was a present for my son’s 16th birthday and we flew from NC to make it happen. A great time was had by all and lots of cool fish were caught. I highly recommend! A++++++++++

Sean is by far one of that best Inshore and off shore Captains. Put you right on the fish first time. He knows the waters well, and where the fish are. I highly recommend booking a charter with Renegade Sport Fishing. It's worth every penny. You will come back with fish.

Captain Sean is awesome and really knows the area. He will put you on the scallops and has all the gear you need to find them. He will even hop in the water and grab some for you! He even cleaned them all up for us at the end of the charter! Wife and I had originally planned to rent a boat for a couple days and go out on our own but we booked charters with capt sean instead. And glad we did, it would have been hard to fins the scallops or fish on our own, even navigating the oyster beds would have been difficult. Great trip, wife and I had a great time! Extremely recommended to go on an inshore fishing trip with him as well!

My family and I have gone scalloping with Capt Sean the last two times we came to Crystal River. Always a great time. This year we swam with manatees too. 10/10 would recommend.
