Our captain was on time, gave us a great orientation speech to bring everyone up to speed! We went out to the reefs and caught our limit of yellowtail snapper. It was such a nice day we decided to go out trolling for a bit. We were in between seasons, but gave it a good try. We did have one release, but he got off before we could get to him. All in all had a great experience with Robert, and would highly recommend him to anyone.

Captain Robert was an Amazing Captain, crew, and kept all our hooks baited. He is full of knowledge and has funny stories that entertained us all. He was also great at teaching us techniques that helped us reel in 30+ fish for 4 of us. The Happy Ours was a wonderful and comfortable boat! We really enjoyed ourselves and highly recommend!!

Phenomenal experience doesn’t even do it justice , this Captain made sure we caught fish and enjoyed our trip. He was working alone on our trip and their was 6 of us .He never missed a beat we and were pulling them in left n right . We will be rebooking with him and would recommend him to any one !! Great Experience hands down.

Man, what a day. We arrived at the dock, and Captain Robert's military influence was apparent. We were given a quick tour of the boat, life vest locations and he clearly outlined the safety measures we would follow while fishing with him. A quick and comfortable 25 minute ride in his air conditioned cabin aboard his 47 foot Sea Ray had us feeling like royalty. We started with drift fishing for Yellowtail Snapper, and in less than 2 hours, the 3 of us had caught our limit. Next, we hit the big water trolling for Mahi. I knew it would be tough as the heat index for a solid 2 weeks had been above 105°. The warm water forces the Mahi to hunt squid at night and just reserve energy during the hot day. Regardless, the captain worked hard to get us on the fish, and we each had an opportunity to get at least 1 in the boat. We finally hit "the wrecks" for Amberjack and that's when the trip became epic. On our very first attempt to bring one aboard, SOMETHING else grabbed onto our Amberjack. Big grouper? Shark? Loch Ness? Who knows. We fought it for 45 minutes gaining some ground, while the beast then pulled line off. Captain Robert backed the boat up numerous times attempting to help us bring it in. But after 45 minutes, the rod finally snapped. We all let out a moan of disappointment, and I was shocked to hear the Captain yell "Keep Going"! Gotta tell ya...a shorter rod makes reeling in Moby Dick much harder and it was only a minute or 2 after the rod broke, that the line broke as well. We LOVED our day on the water, and we will have a "one that got away" story to tell to family and friends FOREVER. Just wish we could have got a peek at what this thing was. Thank you so much Captain Robert. You are a helluva Captain, and we hope to fish with you one day again soon! Truly we thank you for a GREAT, great day!

Captain Robert and his crew worked with us to work around several days that were too windy to go out, which we were thankful for as we scheduled our trip around this fishing excursion. Once we got out there the crew was very helpful and patient with us, including two of us who are pretty inexperienced with fishing. Both caught many fish and had a great time, and never felt stressed at all. We ended up with a good haul of fish despite being limited to the bay by the windy conditions. All four of us were very happy with this outing and are likely to schedule another one with this crew in the future.
