June 30, 2025

Had a fantastic inshore fishing trip with Sea Dawgs Fishing Charters and Captain Adam! He was incredibly friendly, laid-back, and made the entire day fun and effortless. Whether you're a seasoned angler or just looking to relax on the water, Captain Adam ensures a great experience for everyone. We stayed inshore, fished some productive spots, and landed plenty of catches without needing advanced skills. The boat was clean, comfortable, and fully outfitted, and Adam took care of everything so we could focus on enjoying ourselves. If you're after a stress-free, fun day of fishing with a knowledgeable and easygoing captain, I highly recommend booking with Sea Dawgs!

June 30, 2025

Captain Adam was fantastic! We had an absolutely beautiful day on the water. No sharks this time, but the trip was still an incredible experience!

June 30, 2025

We were guided right to the schools of fish, and I caught my very first gag grouper—definitely a highlight of the day. The captain offered excellent tips on how to land the fish we were after. With perfect weather, the whole trip was just amazing. We had an unforgettable day!

June 30, 2025

Great captain got us right to the snook, though they just weren’t biting today. It was a relaxed, enjoyable trip overall. I’d definitely recommend it!

June 30, 2025

We originally booked the trip just for me and my son, but last minute my wife and daughter decided to join—and we all caught fish throughout the entire trip! We even landed several large sharks that gave us such an incredible fight, we were sore the next day. Whether you’re an experienced angler or new to fishing, Joey and Linda make sure everyone has an amazing time. We’ll definitely be coming back!

June 30, 2025

We went in with no expectations and two new anglers in our group, yet we had an amazing day. The captain seemed a bit disappointed we didn’t catch many keepers, but we were just focused on enjoying the experience and following his expert advice. I highly recommend Sea Dawgs!
