    Trip: Afternoon Inshore / Nearshore Trip

  • ★★★★★
    Great trip! We saw some dolphins and Captain Nick was able to get them to surf behind the boat. The fishing was well suited for our family but wish it could have been more intense at times. We were able to go to a beach and cool down for a bit too. Overall it was a good trip and Captain Nick was professional and fun to hang with.

    My daughter, son in law, and I had an amazing trip today with Captain Tim. We caught a few snook and snapper and even had a few to take home to eat. Captain Tim kept us on good fishing spots. He was super helpful and was fun company on the boat. We will be returning for sure!
