We had an incredibly enjoyable and delightful trip with him. Colonel White's sense of humor and exceptional patience with kids who had no prior experience with saltwater fishing made the day even more special. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a fantastic time and a successful fishing experience.

My family and I booked an August charter with the captain. We had a great experience as we are brought to the best fishing spots in the area. He really knows what he's doing and I recommend him as a guide. Book him if you have the chance and you will surely not regret it!

Our family had a great day with our 4hour tour. The team were polite, friendly, and professional. They informed us when we moved around since some of the fish were not biting in the first spot. They really went the extra mile and helped us fish for a trophy one. We even saw some dolphin come near us. They also offered to clean the fish, took some pics, and gave tips to keep the fish fresh. Would recommend!
