About Your Trip

On our 6 hour trips we normally go offshore if the weather permits. Targeting wahoo with live baits while bump trolling, dropping live baits on wrecks for mutton snapper, amberjacks, and African pompano, and anchoring up on the reef for yellowtail, mackerel and grouper are methods of fishing expected to see on our 6 hour trips. The boat will have a cooler full of ice and waters and plenty of room to keep whatever you bring cold. Also, plenty of dry storage available for your belongings. There is a toilet inside the center console with plenty of privacy. We are different from the rest because we ensure the captain will do everything in his power to get you and your group on the best bite possible and get you your dream catch.

Independent Guide
Captain Chris is a seasoned fishing guide with over 15 years of on-the-water experience across two of the most iconic fisheries in the world. For the past 10 years, he has guided anglers through the crystal-clear flats and offshore waters of the Florida Keys, targeting everything from tarpon, wahoo, tuna, sailfish to snapper, grouper, and other species.

Before calling the Keys home, Chris spent five years fishing in the rugged waters of Alaska, where he honed his skills pursuing salmon and halibut in challenging conditions. That time taught him precision, adaptability, and respect for the fishery—qualities he brings to every trip.

Known for his patience, local knowledge, and passion for teaching, Captain Chris welcomes anglers of all skill levels, from first-timers to seasoned veterans. His goal is simple: provide a safe, fun, and memorable experience while helping guests catch fish and build lasting memories on the water.

When you book with Captain Chris, you’re not just hiring a guide—you’re fishing with someone who truly lives for it.

My wife and I had a wonderful day of fishing with Capt.Chris. The bite was a little slow but Chris never gave up on finding fish and it turned into a good day of catching! Made for a great day on the water.

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.
