Captain Eddie is a tenacious and dedicated captain who ensures that your time on his boat is memorable. This is our second family outing with him, and we were pleased as usual. I appreciate how he helped our son-in-law, who is not a fisherman, learn and catch his first Red Snapper. Mama out caught the men on the boat, I caught the first Red Snapper weighing 30 pounds, and went on to catch the next three. I couldn't have done it without Captain Eddie's knowledge and my husband's help in bringing in my massive catch.

We had an incredible experience with Captain Eddie Permenter and Sea Dawg Charters! From start to finish, everything about this trip was first class. Captain Eddie has a fantastic attitude—friendly, patient, and genuinely passionate about making sure everyone has a great time. His boat and equipment are top-notch, clean, well-maintained, and outfitted with everything you need for a successful day on the water. You can tell he takes a lot of pride in what he does. Most importantly, he always knows where the fish are. We easily caught our limit of red snapper, including a massive one hauled in by David Lien. Captain Eddie put us right on the action and kept the good times rolling the whole day. If you’re looking for the best charter experience on the Gulf, look no further. Sea Dawg Charters is the real deal. We’ll definitely be back!

We’ve taken several guided fishing trips on the ocean and Captain Eddie was the best guide ever! We felt comfortable the entire time and he treated us like it was just a great day fishing with your buddies. He treated us like a friend and not just another client. He was always aware of the weather and safety. We had storms going on around us and he managed to work around them. He put us on the trout which was a blast to catch and the best fish I’ve ever eaten. The kids loved him! The Redfish was a thrill to catch! If I’m ever in the area again I’ll absolutely book with him again! Captain Eddie made that day the highlight of our trip!

Captain Eddie is amazing!!! This was our first fishing trip but definitely will not be the last. He was so patient and kind with my kids. He kept our poles baited and brought us to some plentiful spots. Thank you for an absolutely wonderful experience. We can’t wait until next time!!!

Captain Eddie was great. He got us on some good fishing and also told us a little about the area including the sand island lighthouse and fort. Great personality, makes you feel like your going fishing with a close friend. Whether your a novice or a pro at fishing, you will have a great time. For the novice,, He baits up your hook and will even cast for you if you just can't figure it out. He definitely knows the area and keeps you baited and fishing the entire time. My son had some good fights with several of the larger fish in the area which was exactly what we were looking for. Very patient and doesn't make you feel rushed. He educated us on what are good fish to keep and which were not. Also cleaned all our fish at the end of the trip and bagged them up for us.

Great guy goes out of his way for the less experienced fisherman full of local history and plenty of good conversation while your catchin fish of course.
