    We had a great fishing trip. Captain was very knowledgeable and really tried to catch fish. We would definitely go with these guys again.

    Son and I had a awesome trip with Capt Danny. Wind was blowing but found birds and found lots of fish. Main goal was to put my son on some nice redfish and last stop paid off with four redfish in less than 20 minutes. Would have liked one slot but that is why they call it fishing and I’ll take 4 rats over nothing any day. We did get some specs and sand trout to take home. Best part was back at the dock when we rigged up a sand trout and son Hooked into a huge alligator gar that he fought for almost ten minutes. Thanks again for a enjoyable trip.

    The wind was brutal and fishing was tough but Capt Harry kept us on fish all day. Waded through tons of shorts and found some keepers to fill our belly’s. Capt Harry worked his tail off to make sure we had a great time and were satisfied. My son caught his PB red and trout. Till next time. Thanks Capt Harry.
