Captain Alex put us on the fish today. We caught snook , sea trout , and hooked into a huge cobia that took my wife for a fun ride until it broke off. It was a fun time and great trip.

Captain Alex Kirby was a knowledgeable guide. Quick to get everyone's line in the water and manage them whenever there was a tangle or snapped line. Great conversationalist if you wish to chat and fish. Great experience all around, no complaints.

My dad, brother, and I spent half a day with Captain Kirby in early May. Knowledgeable captain that put us on the fish right away. He took great care of us and will definitely recommend. Can’t wait until the next trip!

Alex (captain Kirby) put us on the fish right away. First snapper and Jack then we hammered the trout with a flounder joining the action. Can’t say enough about Alex. Great guy, very attentive and easy going. We’ll be calling on his services again. Thanks captain!

Capt. Kirby is a knowledgeable and friendly local that showed my son and I a great time. We caught some huge trout (among other fish) he cleaned up them and we took home. Highly recommend and will be going out again to get some red fish.
