Great trip!
Jordan M. with Matthew C. of Destin, Florida
★★★★★
We booked two full days. Captain Frank and First Mate Carson got us on fish right away and worked hard all day. Top notch gear and very knowledgeable. We had a wonderful time. We caught our limit of yellowtail, vermillion snapper, and hooked a huge shark! The boat is beautiful and comfortable. We highly recommend!

Captain John was awesome! He was super upfront about water conditions and left all the decisions to us. Had a quick backup plan for us since there were 7-9 foot seas offshore. Caught some fish waiting out the weather and then put us on the fish we were after! 10/10 would recommend

Captain Steve filled in for John and definitely found the fish including a few sharks and barracuda who liked our fish as well! Continuous action and heading to Pepe’s to have them cook some mutton snapper and yellow jack for us. Definitely recommend them!

Maurice and his son took 5 of us out and despite unusual 50 degree rainy weather in Miami we absolutely crushed it. Caught some kingfish, false albacore, and-the cherry on top-a beautiful sailfish. Maurice worked tirelessly to put us on fish and even stayed out a little longer than we should have to get us more bites. He runs a very clean operation and I’ll be back for more.
