    We had a great time with Captain Joey. We are a family of 4 withlittle to no experience fishing. He was so great at helping our kids and teaching them to cast and reel. He was super patient which was so appreciated. He was very knowledgeable about the Everglades area and the fish that we could catch. I would highly recommend him for anyone interested in a fishing adventure in the area. You will definitely enjoy the adventure!
