Captain Charlie and his first mate Dria made for an awesome day of fishing on a last-minute booking. I’ve never been on a fishing charter, so I didn’t know what to expect, but Captain Charlie sure did set the standard. Capt Charlie was quick to move locations to find the bite. After some quick moves, he found the fish and had us catching nice-sized sea trout and shark one after another before taking us into the backwater to go for big snook, a request I made in the comments on FishBooker. In short order, I was hooked up on my personal biggest snook.

The whole time, Captain Charlie and Dria made sure we had everything we needed and surprised us with excellent pictures and videos of the action. At the end of the trip, Capt. Charlie expertly filleted our catches and packed them up for us to eat later that night. What a great experience with a great captain and first mate, Dria!

This was our first time out with Capt. Charlie and the experience exceeded our expectations. He was very attentive and hands-on, making sure our live bait was ready, scouting fish, moving accordingly, etc. His first mate, Andrea, was an excellent addition to our trip. We caught snapper, snook, sea trout, shark and 1 stubborn catfish. Lol

He recommended a local restaurant, Mudbugs, to prepare our fresh fish.which was amazing!!

Side note, Captain Charlie and Andrea came over to Mudbugs to drop off my daughter’s sunglasses. Truly class acts!

We would definitely recommend Captain Charlie!!  Until next time!

I had been chasing my first snook for several trips down to Florida and had been unsuccessful on several other guided trips before fishing with Capt. Charlie. Needless to say he was quickly able to change that and created the highlight of our trip. Service was fantastic, and Charlie didn’t hesitate to make any changes needed to find fish. I can’t recommend booking enough! if he could put us Michigan Boys on some fish then he can for you too! We will definitely be looking to book again for our next trip down, thanks again!

Fishing with Charlie was a great experience. We did the 4 hour trip and caught 4 different species - Snook, Trout, Shark and Ladyfish - at some different locations. We used live bait that was provided by the captain. Some of the catch was kept for dinner. Also we got to see some dolphins swimming up close to the boat as well as a glimpse of some manatees.
Charlie was wery knowledgeable and helpful during our trip so we would definately recommend this for others and try to book it again if any more trips to Florida.

Captain Charlie is hard working, will do anything to put you on fish and is a master of his craft 💪 he even stayed late past our allotted time to make sure we had the best shot to catch fish. We caught snook, trout, snapper, lady fish and mackerel! We had the most amazing time. Charlie makes sure you’re taken care of and he really cares. His boat is awesome and an extremely smooth ride. Don’t look ANY further - BOOK CAPTAIN CHARLIE! We will be back!!!
