Captain John was very responsive upon booking a last minute charter. He was able to accommodate my family even with inclement weather. We all had a fantastic trip and each caught something. Captain John was very knowledgeable of the area and willing to answer any questions we had. We will definitely book again with John next time we visit.

We take a fishing trip every year as a family. Captain John fit right in with us! He had a boat that accommodated all of us, he had plenty of gear and bait and he was great with teaching our son to cast and bait his hook. He took us to several good spots and was very knowledgeable (not to mention patient with the youngin). Highly recommend and will be back again next year!

The weather made the fish less cooperative, but we stilll had a great time playing with puppy drum, snook, and houndfish. I'll be back next year to try again. Captain and crew definitely made the trip.

We had a friend come in from MT, her bucket-list was to fish the Gulf. Captain John made her trip, she talked is ear off. I will recommend him to other friends coming from out West. What a day. Little cool boat ride out, but to see my wife and our friend smile, even if the fish got off made it worth it. He put us on the fish from the first cast.

Toby Keith would have been the big hit of the day, if it weren’t for Capt John B putting us on all these great fish! Not only was Capt JB great at bringing us home the fish, he was friendly, and played us the best of 90’s Country making a beautiful day even better! We appreciated some really good stories, and mainly “A Little Less Talk & A Lot More Action!”
