Captain Richie was great and very friendly. We only booked a 2-hour trip, so we didn’t end up catching anything (although we did get a few bites), but we saw a lot of tarpon. The captain answered every question we had and was very knowledgeable. Although the bite was a little slow during the short time we had, Captain Richie did a great job working with us, teaching us about the fish, and putting us in a great spot. We saw at least 100 tarpon surfacing throughout the trip. One thing we really appreciated was that the captains let us know well in advance
that the bite had been finicky in the area recently. They recommended booking a longer trip because it would allow more time to visit different spots and try different lures. Captain Richie was also happy to let us experiment with different lures and bait, which we appreciated. Overall, it was a great experience, and I would highly recommend it.
BTW- Captian Richie is extremely quick at taking apart wind knots, we were impressed.

Couldn’t give this trip enough Stars!! Captain Ritchie was amazing. Not only had us on Tarpon within the first 1/2 hour of being out but was such a gentleman and truly nice guy. He shuttled my wife back to pee 🙄 without a second thought. Wife caught her first (2-3) fish ever and Captain Ritchie put me on some great fish. Fought what we thought to be a 80 lb Tarpon for a half an hour and got it to the boat 4 times. only thing missing was the final picture as one last head jerk and he bent the hook in half. amazing day with a top. otch guide. I will not use anyone else on returning trips!!

We did the afternoon trip with Captain Ritchie and had an awesome time. We caught tarpon and dog snapper, and with five of us on the boat there was still plenty of room to fish comfortably. The weather was great, and Captain Ritchie worked hard the entire trip, moving locations and putting in real effort to find productive spots. He clearly knows the area extremely well.

He was also excellent at teaching us how and why we were catching fish, and how to do it well. You could tell he genuinely wanted us to learn and succeed, not just drop lines in the water.

He provided waters, a cooler with ice, and a dry place to store our items. The booking process was smooth, even with a few changes on our end. Captain Luis was excellent to work with and Ritchie was top notch. We would absolutely go again and highly recommend booking with them.

nothing beats fishing with a great captain! everyone should alway understand you foshing not guaranteed catching.  our captain went way out of his way to make sure our trip would be everything you would want and he definitely did that!  I highly recommend booking with him!!  On a high note we landed a bunch of nice tarpon but would have still enjoyed the trip if we hadn’t. His experience on fishing and explaining his techniques and what to look for was both helpful and well worth knowing.  Even if you’re a first time fisher there is a great chance of landing a fish of a lifetime.  Again Thanks Captain for going way out of your way for us, i hope to be able to fish with you again!!
