    Frank was 5+ stars. Found some great spots, caught some big fish, and lets just say the fish tacos tonight were amazing.

    Trip: 8Hr Offshore Grouper - Best In FL

  • ★★★★★
    What an unforgettable experience!! We had so much fun and caught so many fish with Captain George- I’m also pretty sure he might actually be a fish whisperer! He was so personable and accommodating. We have fallen in love with this area and can’t wait to come back next year- and you can bet that we will definitely be booking another fishing trip! Thanks for the memories, Captain George!!

    Trip: Grouper And Snapper Trips

  • ★★★★★
    My son and I had a great time fishing with Captain Jake today. Although it may have been a little less action than expected, he made the effort hitting up multiple spots and giving us every opportunity to catch as many fish as possible! Very professional but also made it fun with the conversations and information about the wildlife in the area. Highly recommended, and we’ll be hitting up Captain Jake the next time we’re in town!

    Trip: Holmes Beach Inshore Hookfest

  • ★★★★★
    Frankie was great. He took us to multiple locations to catch a variety of fish. Every member of the charter caught several fish. Frankie took the time to ensure each member mastered the needed approach to catch different species. We booked a 4 hour finishing charter and caught fish the entire time. We caught grouper, snapper, and sea trout. At the end of the trip Frankie cleaned the fish and we had more than enough fillets for the grill. He even gave information about the bay and some history during the trip. We all had fun, ages 13 to 70.

    From the time we first met at the loading dock and the 4 hours we spent with Andy, it wasn’t anything short of a great experience. Andy’s witty humor and knowledge of the water was awesome! Highly recommend! Thanks again
