“An Outstanding Guide Captain!” I had the privilege of joining Captain Alex a recent trip and I cannot recommend them highly enough. From start to finish, Captain Alex displayed unmatched professionalism, expertise, and genuine passion for his work. His knowledge of the area, from its history to its hidden gems, was incredible. Captain Alex] kept us engaged with fascinating stories and answered all our questions with patience and enthusiasm. His ability to navigate challenging situations with ease and ensure everyone’s safety and comfort was truly commendable. We had no issues achieving our limits. What stood out most was his warm and approachable demeanor. He made us feel welcome and ensured we had an unforgettable experience. If you’re looking for a guide captain who goes above and beyond, Captain Alexis is the one to choose.

Had a good trip. Water was a little rough, but what can you do. Caught plenty of fish with three keeper snappers. Trolled back to the marina and hit two Jack Crevale’s. What a fight they put up. Next time I am thinking of trolling the entire trip! Emilio & Logan were great.

Alex was an Amazing guide! We caught our limit 1/2 thru the trip! Captain Alex DEFINITELY knows how to find the fish! We were on the Reds right away! It was awesome seeing the school(s) of Reds and watching Captain Alex maneuver the boat and basically chase them down! After we hit our limit we went for Sheep Head and Black Drum. Wanna go “fishing” call anyone…wanna go “CATCHING” call Captain Alex! Brian & Dylan Silvert
