We had a great day on the water with Captain Phil. We had four adults fishing with different fishing experience levels, and he was great with all skill levels. We started inshore and we were on fish right away. We brought in several snook and redfish within the first hour. We then went out into the gulf for nearly the rest of the day and had action all day, with great success both drop fishing for grouper and snapper and topwater for Bonita and mackerel. One member of our party was pregnant, and Captain Phil was very considerate of boat speed and made the trip out into the gulf as smooth as possible. We then finished the day inshore and caught several decent-sized snook. We ended up with a cooler full of fish and smiles all around. Cannot recommend him enough, our trip was worth every cent!

What a lovely amazing morning out with Capt. Phil.  We caught over 50 various fish, snook, amberjack, Mackerel, spotted and silver trout, catfish,  blues and many more.  Capt Phil took us to great spots, we caught a bunch of fish while other charters barely caught anything.
My wife even caught Capt Phil’s trolling motor… which he was very VERY patient with!!!  She felt really bad, but Capt Phil was very professional about it.

Capt Phil cut up our keepers and we had an amazing dinner of Mackerel and trout.  If you are hesitant on eating these fish… let me be the first to tell you…  each filled was flaky, tender and non fish tasting.  Great blackened, as tacos,  fried or baked.  AND We had more than enough to cook.and try each of the ways I mentioned.

I would totally suggest to take Capt Phil’s Awestruck Charter.  So worth it.

Definitely will do it again!

Thank you Capt Phil

Capt. Phil was awesome!!! Patient, friendly and very easy going!!
Caught about 70 fish and kept about 50 of them. This was my first time fishing in the Gulf of America and I Highly recommend Awestruck Fishing and Capt. Phil Dyer!!!

Captain Phil was amazing from start to finish. Our trip was beyond expectations in every way. We caught tons of fish and he was a very good teacher for 2 10yr olds. The boys say the will remember are trip forever. Could not recommend him more.

Phil was awesome and extremely knowledgeable on current locations, fishing techniques and methods.  And a great guy to spend the day with!  Put us on fish immediately, offered assistance and made our day a wonderful experience.  We caught sea trout, Spanish mackerel, grouper & snapper but the highlight of the day was the 45 minute fight we had with a 5-foot blacktip shark!!
