Amazing Day
We had an amazing day out on the water with Captain Bill. Very knowledgeable and hard working captain. We really wanted to catch a Tarpon, but Bill told us is was still very early in the season. We spent the first 3 hours of the trip where a few were spotted with two other boats. We hooked a large (100+ lb) tarpon but unfortunately the line snapped. The other two boats each brought in one large tarpon each, so Bill knew where to go! The remainder of the day we spent catching tons of nice sized Snook! The tide slacked for the last hour of our trip but Bill volunteered to stay out an extra hour and a half because the bite had picked up the day earlier at that time, and it sure did again on our trip! Through and through Bill used his 20+ years as a captain in the area and his hard work to put us on fish consistently, which is everything you could ask for! I would highly recommend!

Knowledgeable Captain
Very awesome experience, Captain Bill was amazing. He called or texted us a couple times before our booked trip to make sure we knew where to be and what to bring if anything. Started the morning off with hunting for triple tail. He taught us what to look for and exactly how to cast to get the tripletail’s attention. After catching to big tripletails which we ate for dinner :) then went after some Snook and Jack. Captain Bill was very knowledgeable in everything fishing, we will be definitely using him again in the future.

Fun day on the water
We had so much fun with Captain Bill! He definitely primed the water so that fish were there to be caught. He took care of everything, and my teenage kids pulled in one fish after another! We are so glad that we chose this charter! Thanks Captain Bill!
