We booked the 6 hour bottom fishing trip and had a great time. Captain Mark was extremely knowledgeable, knew all the good spots, and had great technology on the boat. We hooked an 8ft bull shark but we cut her loose when she got close to the boat, but the prize of the trip was a 54” Cobia. My son had quite a workout pulling it up, but it was well worth it! We will definitely go fishing with Captain Mark and Steve again! Great guys, great knowledge, great experience! Thanks for everything!!

Captain very knowledgeable and willing to make needed adjustments to make trip a success. Boat of adequate size and very well equipped for the range and type of fishing. The captain was very safe to conscience and kept himself aware of weather conditions with the very appropriate equipment on the boat for communications, the location, fish finding, and prevailing weather. I would highly recommend him for a great day on the water!

We started our morning by meeting with Capt. Mark / Phil at Marks house. We loaded our cooler into boat, and hopped into his truck. The drive to the boat landing was just long enough to build the excitement. Once in the water we made our way to the reef. Capt. Mark got to work getting our rods ready to go and turned on the trolling motor to keep us in place. We dropped our lines in not know what we would bite. As it turned out, it was a lot of 6inch fish called grunts, affectationately named for the sound they make. They were fun to catch but it was clear we needed to move to another area. Once moved we were about 10 miles off shore. We were catching sand perch, grunts, and my son reeled in a triggerfish. Mark caught a 3 foot shark he grabbed that sucker with an iron grip and pulled the hook and sent it back to the water. Phil reeled in a couple red snappers and a half grunt (chomped by a shark) It was awesome!! We moved on from there and the fishing only got better. At the last spot I reeled in two red snappers, a grouper, and some grunts. My son got a second triggerfish and a shark was on his line and pulling hard for 10 seconds then cut the line. It was amazing. Phil got a couple more red snappers and capt. Mark got two more sharks!!!!  When we returned from our trip Mark filleted the fish we kept. So all in all it was an fantastic day of fishing that my son and I will remember forever. It’s all thanks to Capt. Mark

We came in from West Virginia and took a fishing trip with Captain Mark. It was my 15 year old son first time and he caught a 35inch king mackerel. We had a great time and will be going again in the future.

My children and I had a great time with captain Rosen today on the water. He was waiting and ready to go when we arrived. Promptly we headed for the ramp and after putting in, headed out for his first fishing spot. Soon our lines were taut and we started pulling grunts from the bottom. Every time the action slowed, our captain was quick to make a move and keep the fishing going. In addition to the grunts, we caught trigger fish and snapper (vermillion). Also, he kept a couple of lines out for whatever wanted to take our bait.

The highlight of the trip came when a cobia started swimming around the boat. Without wasting time, captain Rosen had a rig ready for it, and we saw how the fish took the bait and ran with it. The fight was on! Clearing most lines out of the water, we started fighting the fish, until it tangled in one of the lines laying out. Fortunately we managed to clear the tangle and continued fighting the fish until we got it close enough to gaff it and bring it in. 50 inches and 40 lbs!

While all this is happening,  something bit one of the lines out and started swimming away. I picked up that rod then and started reeling in. I worked that line hard for about 15 minutes, but eventually broke off. Whatever it was, it was something big.

Captain Rosen was a great fishing guide today. Knowledgeable, friendly, helpful, and ready to assist all of us on whatever we needed. All in all, a great day on the water.
