We booked our charter to line up with a family trip, but Mother Nature had other plans. A strong lightning storm rolled in the morning of our trip, and it looked like we might have to cancel. That’s when Captain Q stepped up. He reached out the day before to give us a heads-up about the weather and offered backup plans just in case. He stayed in touch the morning of and let us know the moment there was a break in the storm—ready to roll as soon as it cleared. Even with the change in plans, Captain Q was already at the dock, boat spotless and fully prepped. Live bait in the well, cut bait on ice, and rods rigged for our target species. Everything was dialed in. Once we got out on the water, he and his crew got us on fish right away. My young son had never been offshore fishing, and they took the time to ease him in. Before long, he was reeling in the biggest catch of his life—a huge red snapper he’ll never forget. The crew coached him through the fight and even made sure to snap plenty of pictures (which I completely forgot to do). Despite the choppy conditions and a few hungry dolphins trying to swipe our catch, they kept us on fish using different techniques and put us on multiple species. If you’re looking for a charter that delivers not just fish but a great experience, Captain Q is the one. We’re already planning our next trip.

We had an awesome time on our fishing charter! Captain Q was super knowledgeable and clearly knew where to go. He made everything easy to follow—even for those of us without much fishing experience. What really stood out was how great he was with our teenagers. He was patient, upbeat, and kept them engaged the whole trip. They had a blast reeling in fish and learning the basics—and they haven’t stopped talking about it since. The boat was well-stocked, the atmosphere was relaxed and fun, and we felt safe and looked after the entire time. Highly recommend this charter for families or anyone wanting a fun, easygoing day on the water with a captain who truly knows his stuff.

I brought my two young kids along, and Q was fantastic! He went out of his way to make sure they had fun and stayed engaged. He’s got the gear, skills, and experience to put you on fish and make the trip memorable. Highly recommend—and I’ll definitely be booking with him again.

This was easily one of our favorite charter trips out of all the ones we’ve done! Captain Q delivered a successful day on the water and truly went above and beyond. We caught a ton of fish and were worn out from all the action. Big thanks to Captain Q and Captain Clay—we’re already planning to book again next year!

Captain Q is the man! He made sure my family and I were comfortable, engaged, and ready for a solid day of fishing. We landed over 50 fish between the four of us—including king mackerel, amberjack, triggerfish, red snapper, red grouper, and a few others I can't even name. He cleaned the fish like a pro afterward too. If you're looking for a captain with a great sense of humor who’s all in on putting your crew on fish, I highly recommend booking with Captain Q.
