Had a fantastic trip with Captain John in July of 2023.

Went for a morning trip on our honeymoon, caught tons of fish, had a lot of fun. John and his first mate were very competent, personable, and provided an excellent experience. The boat was well outfitted, John knew several spots with lots of fish, and gave us more time than we'd paid for.

Great experience, will absolutely book again next time we're in the

Captain Steve filled in for John and definitely found the fish including a few sharks and barracuda who liked our fish as well! Continuous action and heading to Pepe’s to have them cook some mutton snapper and yellow jack for us.

Definitely recommend them!

Great experience! We had a blast fishing with the family. Steve was fun, polite & took the time to teach us! I also forgot my AirPods on the boat & he was nice enough to bring them to our hotel the next morning 🫶🏻
Thank you Steve!

Captain John was awesome! He was super upfront about water conditions and left all the decisions to us. Had a quick backup plan for us since there were 7-9 foot seas offshore. Caught some fish waiting out the weather and then put us on the fish we were after! 10/10 would recommend

We booked with John, but when we arrived John wasn’t there, and he’d arranged for a guy named Steve to take us out. This was a bit of a surprise and not who I’d chosen based on reviews. We’ve been fishing in Key West for several years and this was by far the worst experience we’d ever had. We ended the day with two yellowtails. It was a bit uncomfortable at times because he’d yell and get mad that the fish weren’t biting. Maybe it was an off day but would not recommend and would not go with him again or book with John again bc he may or may not show.

Response from Captain Experiences:

Hey Melissa, I am so sorry this experience did not live up to your expectations. It sounds like there was some miscommunication between the Captains that resulted in confusion at the dock. We are working with Captain John to make sure he effectively communicates all changes of plans with clients. With over 3,000 trips across the globe, we hope we can make this right and get you back on the water ASAP. Please drop us...
