My son and I caught between 25 and 30 nice size snook, and a half day trip. You’ll have a lot of fun with Charlie as your captain.

Captain Charlie was phenomenal. We had a great trip. He was very patient with my 10 year old and quickly understood it was more about him catching fish than me. As the little guy says we wish we could give him a 10 star review instead of 5.
