    Great time was had by all.

    Drew was a phenomenal guide. Myself and a friend were able to smoke 3 redfish between us thanks to his tips. Drew was super patient and extremely knowledgeable. As a more novice fisherman, he was very good at teaching basic casting and presentation techniques with artificial lures. This was a great introduction to fishing from a vessel without the stress of a large multi-party charter. Worth every penny!

    Captain G was a kind and nice guide for my grandson during his first fishing experience! He taught him to cast and allowed him to support navigating back to the dock! We plan to book a future fishing experience with Captain G !

    We had a fantastic time. Caught lots of fish and enjoyed talking to Jason. He put us on fish immediately and moved to another location if the fish stopped biting. Never had time to eat the snacks we brought. Will book with Jason the next time we go fishing
