Fish for a full or half-day in his 22' Hell's Bay boat, which is equipped to handle all possible fishing challenges in the area. The unparalleled maneuverability and shallow draft of this vessel allow our charters to access areas that are off-limits to other watercraft.

Ariel was an amazing captain. We took my 5 year daughter and 10 year old son out for a half day adventure and couldn’t have had a better time. Ariel made sure the kids caught lots of fish including snapper, jacks, barracuda, and box fish. By the end of the trip we called my son Mr Nibbles because he was getting so many bites.

We had a blast! Great Captain that was easy to talk to and knowledgeable of the animals and habitats in the area. We loved the challenge of the blow dart gun. We could’ve stayed all day!

We booked a last minute trip with Ariel and it was the highlight of our trip to Florida. Ariel was a great guy and a great guide. We got right on the water and got right to bagging Iguanas with blow guns. It was a successful hunt and we had a great time doing it. I would definitely recommend this trip to anyone.

Ariel is a really personable guy and the group liked him alot. His inshore experience was pleasant. His boat was a bit small and maybe would have preferred a larger boat and had gone out further.
