Ratings & Reviews Summary
April 4, 2025
Our initial fishing experience was guided by Captain Bryan, an incredibly enthusiastic person who patiently addressed all our questions. Although the first few hours were without a catch, once we secured our first fish, everything fell into place seamlessly. Thanks to the captain's patience and dedicated efforts, it turned out to be the most exhilarating and enjoyable day of my stay in Miami!

I always feel content when one of my sons expresses a desire to do this every day. Captain Bryan went above and beyond to ensure we had an enjoyable time. Despite the excellent equipment that positioned us directly over schools of fish, unfortunately, they weren't biting. However, we did manage to catch a unique-looking tuna. While there's no guarantee of catching a ton of fish, it still resulted in a fantastic day.

Knowledgeable Captain and first mate. Very friendly. We had some issues that Captain Bryan made right for us and hung out while he made us ceviche out of the Hake fish we caught during the deep drop. Would recommend

Captain Bryan was phenomenal! I’ve been on quite of few fishing charters and his was by far my top trip. He really enjoys what he does and takes the time to explain everything and make sure everyone is having a good time no matter what their experience level is. We caught an EXTREMELY rare fish called the Cubera Snapper on our trip. He’s your guy for a Miami fishing trip!
