Captain Andrew is a very knowledgeable guide and treated us like old friends. Because of his expertise and clear instruction we caught some fish, had some laughs and made great memories. I’d recommend him to everyone!

We had a great time out with our guide Andrew. Super personable, easy to talk to, and the skill set to match anyone’s needs. He was a great instructor, willing to go the extra mile to make sure my partner and I were having fun and catching fish. Would highly recommend him for anyone in the St. Pete area looking to get out on the water.

He is a great guide and very knowledgeable about the area .He knew what our goals were made the day really enjoyable! We got to see dolphins, rays and other wildlife. He set us up to succeed and we were able to catch many fish an kept some. He went above and beyond and helped me catch and land a shark which was the highlight of my day. I highly recommend Captain Andrew if you are a novice he is a very patient teacher and guide. We will hire him the nex time we come to St. Pete!

It a tough day. The wind was just whipping making a lot of spots out of question. We did catch some sea trout and then tried for Red Drum and Tarpon but couldnt get any to bite with the cold.
Went back and caught more trout and then we decided to try a few other spots with no luck. Andrew is a really fun guy to fish with and didnt give up. Id go...

Great day of fishing. Captain Andrew knows his Florida fishing. We were put on the fish right away. We moved around just to fill our requests of a few different species. At ease personality, great instructions, feedback, upbeat attitude.
