Came down from NY for vacation with my 14 year old son. Captain Ken was very accommodating to our trip expectations. Being fishermen, we know there is a reason its called fishing and not “catching”. We didnt want to stay in one spot catching the same fish over and over. Captain Ken took us to multiple spots to catch a variety of fish as we planned. Bites were tough, but we were able to catch 6 different species that we wanted to target. Captain Ken did not rush us on time and made sure we achieved our mission. Also got to save on other excursions by being able to see dolphins, the “Lady in the Water”, and see the area. Very personable, respectful, and made it feel like we were already friends. Will schedule on our next trip! Thanks Captain Ken!!

Ken and his son/first mate Kelly are fantastic.  My son and I booked a day of bottom fishing with Hoo Knows.  Ken kept at it until we found fish…and we found the fish!  Had a great time fishing for snappers and tiles.  Even afterward, they went the extra mile and took us looking for Mahi.  Super good guys and a great experience.

Keith is hands down the best charter master captain we’ve ever had — truly in a league of his own. From the moment we stepped aboard, his energy, professionalism, and passion for the ocean made the entire trip unforgettable. He knew exactly where to take us for the most breathtaking views, thrilling adventures, and those perfect, quiet moments that made it all feel magical. His storytelling, humor, and down-to-earth personality kept everyone smiling, laughing, and completely at ease. Without a doubt, this was the funnest time we’ve ever had on vacation — thanks to Keith, it wasn’t just a trip, it was a memory we’ll be talking about for years to come.

This was an OUTSTANDING trip! I highly recommend Hoo Knows Charters is phenomenal! Our day started off rainy. After a couple of rounds of rain showers, Captain Ken put us on the fish. The first spot produced a lot of catches but no keepers. We tried a few different areas but still no keepers. Next stop produced a couple of nice speckled trout(keepers). We hit up a flat and caught several cats, lady fish, and some more trout. We then headed out to the gulf for trolling for Spanish mackerel. A couple of keepers later we headed back. Great trip overall and Captain Ken was super nice and helpful. He was very concerned when we started off slow/no keepers. But, he put us on the fish either way! Will definitely be using Hoo Knows Charters again; next time for some deep sea fishing!
