Incredible experience! Captain Edwin receives 5 stars from us! Our three teenage boys are hard to please and they had so much fun! We caught lots of fish and saw tons of dolphins! It was an amazing trip for our family; one we will never forget.

A fantastic day out on the water. Chilly but comfortable. Captain Edwin is a real pro. We didn’t really catch much, but he went out of his way to try and find us some good spots. Very patient and very jovial captain

great conversations

Looking forward to having us guide us again in the near future

Edwin was the man! I went on a trip with my friend and my father, and we had a great time. We all got on some great fights with Goliath grouper which we won’t forget any time soon. Edwin was extremely accommodating with our plans, as weather was a big concern. He was very knowledgeable about the area, and provided us with many different options to fish throughout the trip.

Edwin was extremely accommodating with our plans, as weather was a big concern. He was very knowledgeable about the area, and provided us with many different options to fish throughout the trip. The boat and gear is all top notch as well. I have had a handful of experiences with different captains, and Edwin is as good as they come! I would recommend to anyone looking to have a good time and catch some fish!
