I run an outfitter in the Midwest and have been on countless charters before, this one was the best experience in every single aspect. The crew were real life good guys, the experience inbetween captain mike and his crew showed. We put atleast 14 fish on the boat including an 82” Atlantic sailfish. This was a bit more than some of the other charters for the same timeframe (4 hours) but the price is worth every penny. We had lines in the water the second we were untied and had 4-5 fish in the boat before the first hour. The boat is large has ac in the cabin, the crew is very friendly and VERY on top of everything. We went with three people total and had more room than we could ever ask for. The boat itself was clean well maintained organized everything you could ask for. I went out hoping to catch a couple fish, the mixed bag, the trophy’s we pulled, it was more than I ever could have asked for. This charter is best for anyone looking to get out on the ocean, be comfortable and still catch fish. Would be great for families, kids, work parties or anything honestly. 20/10 experience don’t question it book with therapy and enjoy your time on the water!

We had a great experience with Stan and the crew! Right off the bat we were able to hook some Bonita (maybe 4-6) and then followed by a good size king fish. Shortly after we brought in a BIG barracuda. Once the bonita were cut up and used as bait, we had two different hammerheads circle the bait for 10-20 minutes, both at the surface with dorsals bisable multiple times… one even came within 10 ft of the boat! We got two huge bites and hoped to hook a hammerhead but unfortunately they got away. To make the day even better, right before heading back in we hooked a great size BULL SHARK that everyone on board had a chance to take turns reeling in! Highly considering booking another trip while we are still in Florida. Highly reccommend! Thanks for the GREAT time!

We did an afternoon 4-hour trip. Captain Mike was phenomenal as was the crew. This is a well oiled outfit with the boat completely purpose built for deep sea chartering. We caught one King Fish, two giant barracuda, one small Black Tuna, several Rainbows, and a half dozen bonitos that we later used as bait. The cabin was air conditioned, which helped with the teenagers; the equipment was too quality and in good shape; and, the layout included six rods using outriggers and a variety of bait and teasers. They cleaned our catch expertly (e.g., nice filets with bones removed and they didnt mind that I bled the fish in their ice box!) I highly recommend them!!

We booked a half-day trip with Therapy IV out of Haulover Marina, and it turned out to be one of the most exciting and memorable days of our lives—especially for my 12-year-old son, who was going deep sea fishing for the very first time. Captain Mike and First Mate Chris made the entire experience absolutely outstanding.
They were incredibly welcoming and patient, taking the time to explain everything to my son.  They clearly love what they do and have that perfect mix of expertise, enthusiasm, and fun energy that makes a family trip special.
We hooked into a beautiful sailfish early on— sadly, it spit the hook.
Then came the magic: we spotted a school of mahi-mahi, and they put a rod in my son’s hand and he hooked two himself.  My son reeled in his first mahi-mahi.  As he was catching the mahi, we even hooked a feisty barracuda on one of the lines—pure adrenaline!
To cap off an already great day, right before heading back in, we hooked into an 8-9 foot tiger shark. Watching my son battle that massive predator (with expert guidance from Mike and Chris) was the ultimate thrill.
Captain Mike’s knowledge of the waters and ability to find the fish was impressive, and Chris was right there every step—hands-on helping with rods, bait, and keeping the boat clean and organized so we could focus on the fun. They both went above and beyond to make this a perfect and joyful experience for a kid’s first big offshore trip.
If you’re looking for a charter in the Miami area that delivers real adventure, top-notch service, and memories that last a lifetime—especially with kids—Therapy IV with Captain Mike and Chris is the absolute best choice. We can’t wait to go back!
Thank you, Mike and Chris—you made my son’s first deep sea fishing trip legendary! Highly recommend—5 stars aren’t enough! 🎣🦈
