The crew was very nice. Mike,Jessie,jimmy were extremely helpful an answered all questions. they helped take fish off also showed all fish that was caught to tell you more about the fish. Would recommend a planning on booking another trip when we come back down. the experience was well enjoyed.

The best fishing trip ever had! I had so many doubts about if the crew would be willing to take a wheelchair user onboard, but they are super nice and friendly and actually very knowledgeable about how to make sure we catch fish! Will visit again next time!

For added adventure, nighttime trips anchor up over a spot where the crew chum the water for snapper and grouper.

Everything is included in the price; just bring along any food and drink you like. This is a fun trip for novice and experienced anglers, and the crew is there to help you 1-on-1 for the entire trip.
