Fishing since I was old enough to know how to hold a rod. Offshore fishing out of Palm Beach has been my passion for the last 30+ years. Having worked on charter boats for 20 of those years; trolling, kite fishing, drifting live baits, I’ve experienced it all but constantly learning new techniques and patterns. I look forward to meeting new people and creating new memories! We will work hard to ensure you have the best experience out on the water whether the fish are biting or not. We have a clear understanding that we are in the entertainment business just as much as the fishing business and want to make your trip a success!

We had an excellent 6-hour fishing trip with Captain RJ and Nick. Nick was hands-on with everything, from setting the rods and trolling to helping us reel in fish and expertly managing the kite fishing, which is far more complex than it looks. They work seamlessly as a team. We caught a wahoo right out of the gate, and they filleted it for us and gave great advice on how best to prepare and eat...

Both were courteous, knowledgeable, friendly, and genuinely fun to spend the day with. A fantastic experience from start to finish; highly recommend.

R.J. And Nick was fantastic. Their boat was very nice and spacious. We caught a huge 42”/15lb dolphin within an hour after leaving the dock. Nick cleaned and filleted the fish and pointed us in the direction of a local restaurant that would cook it up for us.

A terrible experience. The captain drove the boat without telling us anything about the trip. The deckhand was in charge of setting the lines. We asked him questions, but he didn't answer us. We paid an extra $100 for live fish to increase our chances of catching anything. These were used 10 minutes before the end of the trip, and we caught nothing.

During the day, some lines got bites but weren't replaced, further reducing our chances of catching fish. In addition to not talking to us, the deckhand used cannabis during the trip. In short, the worst fishing experience of my life.

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.
