What an amazing day!! Perfect weather, perfect fishing and the perfect guide! We got on the boat and he asked our girls what they wanted to catch. They said “sharks!” So Captain Jessie brought us out and we caught a shark for each of them in less than 30 minutes!! Wow!! And if that wasn’t enough, we went on to another spot and caught about 75 other fish! Was so much fun!! Thanks for such a memorable experience Captain Jessie!! We’ll be talking about this for many years to come!!

Capt Jesse He has guided us twice so far and he is proving to be very knowledgeable of the waters, very outgoing and charismatic as well as a professional guide. We have always caught the species we were targeting and had a lot of fun doing it. Our most recent Tarpon trip was a raging success and we can’t wait to do it again next month with him.
