    What can I say about this trip. Yes I'm sure we got a bit lucky, but Captain Jake got his own bait, put us on fish immediately and we had a blast. We caught 6 different species on light tackle from spanish mackerel, to catfish, to black tip sharks. It was already an amazing trip. Then we got the heavy tackle out and hooked into a hammerhead, more black tips, and the absolute icing on the cake was a giant 150 lb Tarpon. This was my dream, and Jake made it happen. I couldn't recommend him more. He is very knowledgeable, takes his profession very seriously and is fun and personable at the same time! Do not hesitate to pick captain Jake for your next trip

    We had a fantastic day of fishing with some business clients. Captain Wade never stopped working—he had us on fish within minutes and was re-baiting hooks in seconds. The boat was comfortable, well-equipped, and spacious enough for all six of us to fish with ease. While it was a “business entertainment” outing, Captain Wade’s laid-back, humorous personality made the trip feel effortless and fun. Plenty of fish, plenty of laughs—thanks, Captain Wade!
