Absolutely Awesome!
Capt. Andrew was absolutely awesome. Considering there were two 7 year olds, and less than optimal weather. Capt. Andrew was so patient, so hands on, and showed us a fantastic trip. Great guy and we are very appreciative.

Bucketlist Fishing trip
You knew it was going to be a good day when we arrived at 650 for a 7AM start and Andrew had the boat in the water and was waiting for us to take off. We got in and zoomed over to catch some bait and we crushed a ton of pilchard (he also had live shrimp as a back up) and then hit up the fishing spots. To be honest, I was worried when I saw one captain and no first mate knowing there were 4 of us and we would be fishing in an area we were unfamiliar with. After hitting the first spot, all those worries were gone. He was actively working behind us he ENTIRE day. If one of us got hung up on a mangrove, he handed us a pole that was ready to roll and then took care of our mess. Whenever we stopped, we were fishing 99% of the time. The boat was great and the water was smooth so we cruised between spots and that was almost as fun as the fishing. We caught a ton of snook, snapper, barracuda and jacks. Overall great time with Andrew. Highly recommended!

3/4 Day and couldn't get enough
The trip started promptly at 7am. Ran out about 15 minutes to catch bait. When we arrived there were 2 other boats. Our captain did not hesitate and went somewhere else so we didn’t waste time. We got all our bait in a few minutes and we were at the 1st stop before 8am and got a few hits almost instantly.. As soon as we casted a few times with no long, we moved to another spot and hit them again. We caught snooks, jacks, snappers and even a couple of seagulls. Dolphins flying, and even with a very expensive piece of boating equipment getting damaged. The type of damage that I am sure would have sent others charters back to the dock early. Not this captain he did a quick bush fix and we were back at it. Captain Atwill was super attentive to us and especially with our 11 year old who can talk the bark off a tree. We wish there were more stars that we could give for this charter. We have been on quite a few charters some with some very well known captains and without a doubt or exaggeration. Atwill is head and shoulders above just by his knowledge of the grounds and the service he provides while on charter. A+++++. If you are looking to catch fish and have a great time doing, book this gentleman. See you in July again.
