    Even though the weather did not cooperate at first, Captain John John was able to work things out and get us out on the water for an amazing trip! Had lots of fun, heard some crazy tales and caught many species of fish. Our deck hand Drew did an fantastic job as well. Such an amazing experience, thank you guys, we will definitely set up future fishing trips with Kingslayer Charters.

    Captain was great ,deckhand was even better! Weather was not with us still caught a few fish a lot of time looking, boat needs maintenance

    Justin was professional, once explained the basic rules,he disappeared into cabin until we landed. No access to captains helm was granted, so we couldn't see instrumentation etc. Brandon worked hard and was very pleasant. Was surprised that we had to have fished cleaned by third party. Also surprised that 4 hr trip was dock to dock. All my past trips started at start time and we were fishing until time was up. So we paid for drive to site and they gave us return trip. Actually we only fished 2 hrs. Captain worked hard to keep us on fish. They were very small, but he warned us they would be.You need to be much clearer on your web site about fishing time and fish size, also you clean your own.

    James C. with Justin S. of Panama City, Florida

  • ★★★★★
    Amazing trip! Great captain and deck mate! Highly recommend.

    Mark D. with Stephen B. of Panama City Beach, Florida

  • ★★★★★
    Captain John and is mate did an excellent job in making sure my family had a very good experience in the golf fishing. Withing the first hours we already had all of the fish we could take. I would give it a 6 star but it looks like it's not possible so 5 it is. If you are still thinking about booking with Cap John don't think twice just go for it, him and is mate will make sure you have a good and safe experience.
