Our captain, Samuel, went way out of his way to help ensure that we had an excellent trip. The weather wasn’t great that day, and most captains were canceling, but we did not have another day to go fishing, and Samuel made it work for us. We appreciate his excellent knowledge and skills in fishing as well. Highly highly recommend!

My sons had never been out fishing on a boat and this was their first experience. Needless to say, they want to return. The experience was awesome as Sam saw to it that we all had a great time. Highly recommended!

Capt Samuel is great.  Had a blast caught some great fish and he was awesome with my son and his friend.  They both want to be charter captains now.  If you are in the Tampa area I would book a trip everyday with him.  Looking forward to our next one!  I could say a lot more but you really need to go out fishing with him to appreciate what he does.

You can tell that Captain Sam is very passionate about fishing. He guides multiple teams and tournaments and can also take you bird watching. If your interested in deep fishing, Sam is your man! We didn’t do that on this trip. Not even 10 minutes into fishing we cause at a 31” redfish./ There was no tide! Captain Sam has some tricks up his sleeve to try and lure fish to the boat. He prides himself on keeping fishing action packed and it shows.

Capt. Sam was very concientious, texting 2 days out, and again the night before (conditions can sometimes change, so I am told). We confirmed when and where, and left the dock right on time.

Knowing right where he wanted to go, there is a nice trip out over the bay, and within 20 minutes we were lines in.

I have to say, this trip was about fishing and catching, more than catching fish we could take home to eat. We were looking for action, not food. Capt. Sam knows those waters!

From 20 minutes in, it was Fish-On! We were pulling 7 - 12 pounders in about every 7-10 minutes. Snook, Reds… I even hauled in a hammer-head (amazing) ... all catch and release.

When there was a break in the action, and we are only talking a 20 min. lull, Capt. Sam would move the boat to another spot, then Wham .. strike after strike.

We had a great time, Capt. Sam handled all the rids, lines hooks, bait, and even casting tips - that guy could cast a line on top of a beer can at 30 yards…

The time was filled with action, exactly what we were looking fo; From the short journey out, to the hot spots with some very nice fish! I am rating 5 stars accross the board, and would recommend you book with Captain Sam.
