Gulf Island Charters with Captain Experiences

Donald was friendly and interacted with my grandson very well. We had good conversations but the actual fish catching not so much. We averaged 3 fish each. Plus make note you cannot keep any of them. We had planned on eating our catch that night, but it is not allowed.

We really enjoyed our fishing trip with Donald. He was so friendly and very patient. He helped each of us every time we needed bait and he helped us cast our rods. We all caught multiple fish and had a wonderful time. I highly recommend Donald for your next fishing trip!

We were disappointed with this trip. Don was nice. However, our inshore fishing trip not what we expected or have experienced on similar trips with other services. We BARELY left the marina, we went to 3 seemingly random fishing “spots” that yielded no fish and it didn’t even feel like he was trying to get us on the fish as a normal guide would do. After we got back to the marina,...

After we got back to the marina, he let us know that he did catch and release only. This is NOT what your website said. We are very disappointed we paid so much money and weren’t informed of the guide’s preference for catch and release only.

Response from Captain Experiences:

Hey Preston, we’re sorry to hear your trip didn’t meet expectations, and we completely understand your frustration. It’s disappointing that the fishing locations didn’t feel productive and that you felt there was a lack of effort to get you on the fish. On top of that, not being informed ahead of time about the guide’s catch-and-release policy is a huge oversight. We’ve addressed this with Capt. Don and have noted that his kids trip is...

We’ve addressed this with Capt. Don and have noted that his kids trip is "CATCH AND RELEASE" in the title. We’ve reached out to you with a discount and would love the opportunity to provide a better experience next time.

Don was awesome! we had a 4 and 7 year olds and he was very attentive to both. he wasn't overbearing like some captions and let us fish, but was on it if someone needed help. If you have kids and want to finish I highly recommend this charter!

Super nice guy. Did his best to get us around to different fishing spots. We had fun. He did great getting all the fish off and baiting our hooks. Great trip for any level fisher. Not the best day for fish biting but it was fun.

We had a great experience with Captain Danny today! There were three dads and three 8 year olds on the boat and he was such a great guide and teacher with the little ones. We caught some fish right away at the first stop and then spotted a number of dolphins on the bay. We all had a great time!

Captain Danny was awesome! He was so good with my boys (13, 12, & 6) and us- I would highly recommend booking with this group! Capt Danny was so friendly and experienced, he was able to maneuver us around to catch some even when it was super cold. We really enjoyed it! They were flexible with us on scheduling too. If you're thinking of doing a beginner fishing trip- go this
