Experienced profession captain!  Maintains his boat, tackle and equipment in top condition. While we didn’t fill a cooler with fish, Andrew did everything possible to make that happen. The captain can’t control wind/seas/bite, but he attempted to!

He was willing to share his knowledge with us and we learned new skills that we can apply to future trips to Key West.

We plan on coming back and will definitely engage Hillbilly Hookers again.

Awesome day with Captain Andrew and his son Calvin.  Extremely down to earth, friendly and service oriented.  Captain was great with communication before and during the trip.  It was a good haul to the Tortugas, 2-2.5 hours, but well worth and very comfortable on the bean bags he had set up in the back.  He provided a tour of the national park and the history that comes with it.  Offered us the opportunity to Loggerhead Key, we passed.  Water temps were a little too cool for snorkeling so we went straight to fishing.  Limited out on grouper with 15 minutes, snapper in an hour.  Non-stop action the whole time.  Great guy, down to earth and easy to talk to.  Would highly recommend and will book again.

Awesome personality, great guy and very knowledgeable!!!!

This trip was everything I could ask for. I asked Captain Andrew to put me on a big fish and he definitely delivered. We set out for Goliath grouper to start the morning. We had a few little sharks to play with at first but had no luck for the grouper. They must of not been in the mood at the time to eat our bait, but hey that’s why they call it fishing and not catching lol. We went out to a new spot and he put me on a BIG lemon shark and it was a heavy fish and a super fun fight. After the first shark the bite was on. It was an incredible day. I will definitely touch base with Captain Andrew next time I am in key west!!

I can’t say enough positive things about Captain Andrew. This was our second charter with him and with good reason. He has a laid back yet professional demeanor, the equipment you’ll use is top notch, the boat is clean, comfortable, and has plenty of room to play a fish, and you will need that. He doesn’t spare the time or fuel to get you on the fish you’re looking for and has a library of spots in his gps. With 3 people on the charter, we limited out on some really nice grouper within 4 hours.

I’ve been on other charters out of the key west area, and let’s just say they left a lot to be desired.  Booking with Hillbilly Hookers is well worth every cent you’ll spend. Just do me a favor and leave some days open for me because I’ll definitely be back.

Our family had a wonderful time fishing and exploring the Dry Tortugas with Andrew and Cal of Hillbilly Hookers.
