Most fishing trips with this charter deliver exactly what anglers hope for: experienced captains who know where the fish are, hardworking crew members who help novices and pros alike, and coolers full of red snapper, amberjack, and grouper to take home. Captain Darral and the crew on the Family Pride get frequent shoutouts for their friendliness and professionalism, with deckhands working tirelessly to accommodate everyone on board. Even complete beginners report having a blast and catching impressive fish thanks to patient, knowledgeable staff who make the experience accessible. The reliability issues mentioned in a handful of reviews deserve consideration though. A couple of parties reported last-minute cancellations due to weather (even when conditions improved) and communication breakdowns including no-shows without notification. These seem to be isolated incidents rather than widespread problems, but having a backup plan wouldn't hurt. The overwhelming majority of recent guests had smooth, well-organized trips with responsive booking and clear instructions. The crew's dedication really stands out, with mentions of staff going above and beyond to help guests with mobility issues and keeping spirits high even when conditions get rough.

What people are saying

Excellent deep sea fishing experience! The captain did a great job navigating us to several spots with a variety of fish to catch and ensuring that we had plenty of opportunities to catch red snapper (which was very easy to cook after and so delicious). The whole crew was really helpful with tips and assistance to help everyone catch and successfully reel in bigger fish. I do not have much experience fishing and was able to really enjoy it with their help! There’s a place right in the marina that cleaned our fish quickly for a very reasonable price and we bought some great seasoning in the store there as well.
