★★★★★
We had an amazing time out on the water. Jon was an outstanding guide. He was friendly, patient, and great with kids. He made sure we were comfortable from the start and gave clear instructions that made the experience enjoyable and easy to follow. This was our first charter trip and it could not have gone better. My 10-year-old son Isaac had a blast and has not stopped talking about it since. He even caught a few fish and was so proud of himself. Jon made the day fun and memorable for both of us. We would definitely recommend Jon to anyone looking for a relaxing and well-run fishing trip with a great guide. Thank you again Jon. Ten out of ten

Trip: 2-Hour Kids Trip - 26’ Pathfinder
★★★★★
Capt. Keith’s knowledge of the local flora and fauna exemplifies a true Florida waterman. We felt at home and comfy on his vessel and enjoyed the liquids of both the bay, and cooler. A few fish iced the cake of an already memorable trip, while the storied adventure was the real treat. We’ll be back.
