Brent did a great job for our group of 6. It was a large crowd, but he had a great set up for us and we enjoyed getting to know him. Brent is easy to talk to and made our experience very memorable. We caught a lot of fish and will be back soon! Thanks for the trip! The Captain Experiences website was super easy. This was our first experience...

Brent was the real deal. It put us on the fish and we made our limit by 8am and was able to just catch and release the rest of the morning. He is very knowledgeable about the best fishing holes. We got to see dolphins, stingrays, and turtles and he was a wealth of knowledge. I strongly recommend Brent and I hear is hunting/fishing combo is to die for. Can’t go wrong here!
