My first time booking a charter. I had fun and the crew was extremely helpful and patient with a newb like me. I mentioned that one fish that I really wanted to go after was tarpon. After five hours of trolling and catching bonitas and King Mackerel we started heading back and found a spot with some tarpon. I did end up buying some live bait that didn’t get used but I thoroughly enjoyed my trip.
Our captain was awesome and got us on some nice fish. I will definitely be booking again when I am in the area. My only constructive criticism, which I can understand in some cases with people that have little experience holding fish, but me and my friend have been fishing for 9 years, and he caught 2 barracudas but was not allowed to hold them for a picture, if we are dishing out over $700, we’d like to hold our fish for a picture. Also it was stated bait was included but I had to dish out an extra 100$, of what was supposed to be a tip for the captain.

Hello and thanks for the feedback! We appreciate any criticism to try and better ourselves. The barracuda situation is tough for us due to the fact that they have sharp teeth and we usually don’t kill them to take pics after the fish is dead. So we usually release em right away and I hope Tyler at least offered to hold it for you for a pic (I know that’s not the same) ..as far as the bait.. We include all needed bait on all trips with no extra fees. The type of bait you purchased extra that day ,we never MAKE anyone buy that bait. They are specific live baits that we use when fishing tournaments and some days captain Tyler offers it to customers as an extra method of fishing to try if things are slow. Hope you didn’t feel pressured to buy it and hope they made a difference for more fish. Feel free to call and chat with us anytime and we’re glad you’ll be back!
