It was the highlight of my trip and the best fishing experience I’ve ever been on. I would highly recommend going out with captain Leonard, he was very helpful and helped me catch a good bit of fish. My only regret is not booking sooner.

I came down to Gulfport from Atlanta for labor day vacation and hired Captain Leonard to take us fishing. Leonard took great care of us and we caught a ton of really great fish. He gave us tips on being better fisherman as well. I highly recommend Capt. Leonard for your next fishing trip.

We had a good time on the boat. Unfortunately we didn’t catch much due to weather but all in all Captain Leo and Neil were very personable and helped as much as they could to try and get us some fish.
