Captains Alex and Bryce consistently earn praise for putting guests on fish and keeping the atmosphere fun throughout the trips. Multiple reviewers mention returning multiple times, which speaks volumes. The crew gets high marks across the board for being attentive and helpful, with mates like Wes and Riley specifically called out for jumping in before guests even need to ask for assistance. Families appreciate how the crew handles kids with genuine friendliness rather than talking down to them. The operation runs smoothly from start to finish. Melanie gets kudos for helpful booking assistance, including finding split charters for smaller groups. Most trips result in plenty of keepers, with grouper, snapper, and various other species regularly hitting the deck. After your trip, you can have your catch cleaned and head right to O'Leary's Tiki Bar next door to have it cooked. A couple of isolated complaints mention trip cancellations and a fish mix-up, but the overwhelming majority of guests leave satisfied, with many becoming repeat customers. The split between 4.5, 6, and longer charter options means you can choose your own adventure based on your group's stamina.
We had a great time on our 6 hour fishing trip! Making the reservation was super easy and the lady who takes care of reservations was really nice and a great communicator! The captain was super friendly and the first mates were extremely helpful and thorough! The boat was sturdy and clean. The bathrooms were very clean and roomy! We caught a lot of fish and they cleaned them right at the dock when we got back. We will definitely fish with them again!
