    Captain Jorge was great. We unfortunately went out at a slow time of year and the fishing that day wasn't the best. We still managed to catch a few and Jorge worked hard to make sure we all got a fish. Also a knowledgeable and cool guy all around, would definitely go out again!

    We had a nice time with Taylor. Wish we could have caught more fish. We got one conus that we had to release. My husband is a very experienced fisherman and I believe if we would have gone to deeper waters it would of been more of a success, but still a good rime

    Trip: #1 Offshore Charter

  • ★★★★★
    Had the privilege on going out on a charter with Captain Crist. Unfortunately, our previous captain had some issues and canceled our trip last minute. Luckily Captain Crist was able to put us in and we had an absolute blast not only did he come in clutch but he was very knowledgeable and honestly great soul to be around. Definitely will recommend and we’ll probably go again.
