Fishing trip with family.

VERIFIED

We went out with family today and had a great time and caught our limit on red snapper in about an hour and a half. Kyle put us on fish and we maxed out fast. The deck hand Travis took great care of us and he especially looked out for our mom that needed help after landing big fish. Great crew and fishing was awesome.

Captain put us on large red snapper immediately, limit within 30 minutes, after that, he took us to other snapper species, it was non stop big fish, then he finished trip letting boys fish for sharks. Captain did everything we asked and boys had great time. I highly recommend this charter

Boll Weevil half day

VERIFIED

Charter was exactly as described; no let downs. Capt Bryan Watts and crew were friendly, engaging, and very helpful. I especially appreciated their willingness to teach me about the boat, bait, working the deck, and fishing. To me, an important predictor of the quality of a charter is how quickly the Captain and crew remember your names(s) and use them genuinely. The guys got them down quickly and it makes difference. Great crew, great trip, great charter. Would definitely fish with Captain Bryan and crew again. 👍👍
