Capt. Jamie was fantastic! We’ve done a handful of charters, but this was better than any of the others we’ve done. Our charter party was a party of five, ages 3-75, and Jamie flawlessly took care of the needs from the kids and adults alike. Jamie made a few last minute accommodations and was very very generous with his time. He took us to a place where the kids could catch tons of fish, a remote island so the kids could find cool shells, a place to see dolphins, and out to the Gulf so that we could catch some big Grouper. My five year old son caught a Grouper about half his size and Jamie put me on to a few bigger ones. It was a highlight of the week! Thanks again, Jamie, see you next time!

We had a great experience with Captain Jamie! We took our two young kids fishing for a few hours and had a great time. He helped with guidance and knew all the spots to go. Would definitely recommend!

Jamie is flat out the best. We had ourselves an unpredictable weather day with a tropical storm blowing through. He stuck it out, moved with the weather & someway, somehow got us on some fish. Takes a real guide to make that magic happen! Appreciate you to no end, Jamie. Looking forward to next time.
