Caught Sheepshead, Red Snapper, Grunts, and Groupers. Saw a Manatee, a couple sea turtles, and many dolphins. Jimmy is very knowledgeable, friendly and takes care of the fishermen in the boat, baiting and taking off fish. Can’t go wrong with Jimmy.

Captain Jimmy did a great job of showing us around and teaching us how to fish. Every one caught a keeper! We boated out to a sandbar to collect sand dollars and shells. We saw so many manatee and dolphin, sometimes both at the same time! Captain Jimmy was fun ...Read More

Great trip yesterday afternoon. We weren’t sure what to expect with the foggy and windy conditions. But Captain Jimmy found the fish. He is extremely knowledgeable about the fishing in the area, and we learned a lot from him. It was a great way to wrap up 2021.
