    Had a great experience booking with Andrew. He was always so communicative and helpful about how the trip was looking and what options we had regarding timing, what to fish, and if the day would be good or not. We had just to reschedule from our original day but it all worked out great. Ended up going in November and crushed Bonito for a half day. Nearly every time we put lines in the water we got a bite on at least one of them. Really great trip had a time!

    We had a great time fishing. The boat was amazing and the captain and his mate lots of fun and made our entire trip enjoyable. I strongly recommend using this charter service. They kept us in the loop from the moment we made our reservation.

    Great time, great fishing. Ezekiel was great, knew exactly what to and where to fish. We did “Not just go on a boat ride.” We caught a Yellow tail. Which was the icing on the cake.
