Captain Russ loves teaching people the basics of fishing, showing them how rewarding the sport can be, as well as days when he can let the pros strut their stuff. Or, if cruising and splashing around is more your thing, we know exactly where to go.

Spend the day on
the Captain "O", our 24 ft. center console Sea Hunt, the perfect vessel for the perfect day. Its size and draw allows for flexibility of fishing sites and stability on the open waters. Equipped with a quiet Yamaha 250, you’ll have no problem hearing your tunes of choice on the boat’s Sirius Satellite or plug in your own device. The Captain "O" has a T-top if shade is desired and a head for when nature calls. All trips include bait, tackle, ice, licenses, and FUN!

First Time Booking with Us?

Captain Experiences is home to thousands of quality, vetted fishing, hunting, and other outdoor sports guides across the US and beyond. Our mission is to Unlock the Outdoors by making it quick and easy to book the trip of a lifetime every time with our Damn Good Guides.
We vet our guides and only partner with the best of the best. Our guides do their very best to keep you safe, show you a great time, and send you home with a memorable experience shared with family and friends.
Once you've paid your deposit at checkout, we'll send you a QR Code boarding pass. Just show your guide your boarding pass on the day of the trip, they'll scan it, the remaining balance will transfer automatically, and you'll be all set to get out there. Just make sure you bring a cash tip for the guide!
In the event of inclement weather, our guides will check the conditions and make the final call on whether its safe to go on the trip. If they decide the trip needs to be postponed, we'll work closely with you to reschedule or provide a credit for the full deposit, which can be applied to any of our trips in the US and beyond.
Each trip's price is determined by the guide and reflects all associated costs. A significant factor in pricing is often the type of boat and the corresponding fuel expenses. Additional costs may include leases, marina or slip fees, and the expenses involved in providing and maintaining the necessary gear for your trip.
After booking your trip, we'll connect you directly with your guide to discuss additional details. In the meantime, our team is here to answer any questions via email, text, or phone.
