Ratings & Reviews Summary
March 28, 2025
We had an amazing time on this trip! Captain Matt and Greg were incredibly knowledgeable and took us to some fantastic fishing spots. As soon as our bait hit the water, we were reeling in fish! We landed some massive Red Snappers (which we had to release, unfortunately), plenty of big Black Sea Bass, an Atlantic Sharpnose Shark (also released), and a variety of other fish. We even brought home a cooler full to Nebraska! The water was a bit rough at first for us land lovers, but it didn’t take away from the experience. Huge thanks to Matt and Greg for an unforgettable adventure!
March 28, 2025
Captain Matt and Greg were outstanding! We caught multiple fish and a variety of species throughout the trip. At 55, I felt completely comfortable even when the seas got rough. Captain Matt took an alternate route back to ensure a smoother ride, showing just how much he cares about his passengers' comfort. This crew is top-notch, and I highly recommend this trip. We’re already planning our next adventure—a Gulf Stream trip with them!

Captain Cody made our trip unforgettable! His exceptional people skills, boating expertise, and ability to put us on the fish made for an exciting and fun-filled day. He treated us like family, and I can’t wait to book with him again in the near future. I’ll be spreading the word to all anglers in Central Indiana to book through FishingBooker.com and highly recommend Captain Cody. My kids will cherish this experience for a lifetime, thanks to his amazing ability to connect with them!
