Life Long Memories With My Dad
2 HOUR 10am-12noon FISH/SHARK COMBO on November 11, 2025 • 2 adults
Captain Steve and his crew Thor were awesome. i wasn’t sure what to expect other than catching something isn’t always guaranteed. Captain steve was incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and worked tirelessly throughout our charter to put us on some fish. Honestly the “chase” was just as fun as the fishing part. it was a heart pounding experience after we got out first barracuda in the boat because we knew we were on! I don’t get to spend much time with my dad these days and with my dads his lack of mobility we don’t get many adventures like this anymore. Captain steve and thor made sure we got amazing pictures and in creating an experience we are both never going to forget. That in itself is priceless to me. from what he calls running the fish down to making sure we had a line in the water at all times- this charter is 10 out of 10 and would book again in a heartbeat. We found ourselves, laughing and joking, and enjoying the adrenaline rush of a truly unique experience hours later. We caught 2 and lost 2 and it’s the one we lost mixed with the sheer tenacity and great camaraderie of the captain and crew that will keep us coming back. you’re missing out if you go anywhere else as i can’t imagine anyone who will work harder than these guys. thanks so much

Perfect day for fishing.
5 HOUR 6am-11am FISH / SHARK SLAYER on August 22, 2025 • 2 adults
We can’t say enough good things about our trip with Captain Noah and Thor. We got off to a great start with a cal from Captain Steve last night upgrading us to the 47’ boat for our charter. From the moment we arrived Captain Noah and Thor were so friendly and personable and promised we would get on lots of fish.
After stopping for live bait we hit the water and were catching fish immediately. Captain Noah then headed out and we followed an incredible pod of dolphins as they moved through the area. They made a quick stop back at the bait shop for anchovies and again we were hitting fish right away. It was awesome catching back to back to back fish while watching the other boats getting skunked.
Captain Noah and Thor then moved us out into the open water for a chance at a shark. Almost immediately after getting us settled Captain Noah spotted a 7 foot Mako that Thor got us hooked on. We had an incredible fight for about 30 minutes before he broke free. They kindly extended our trip an hour for a second shot since they didn’t have another charter right away.
My wife and I had an amazing time and are already looking forward to coming back again soon. We are hooked.

August fishing trip
3 HOUR 8am-11am FISH/SHARK COMBO on August 3, 2025 • 1 adult • 1 child
Great fishing trip…. Last minute booking with for me and my 12 yr old son, 3 hour trip was a good amount of time. We caught a barracuda, literally on the first cast, and Noah, the captain, said ‘It doesn’t always happen like this!’ We caught 10-12 juvi barracuda, great fun, and a few calico bass, a sand bass, and one mackerel. Noah kept us engaged, and always baited out hooks quickly- even though we are pretty capable, and didn’t really need the personal attention.
Easy access, in-shore was close and the fish were biting!
Noah has a good personality and was great with my son.
I already recommended them in the line at Heritage BBQ after our trip.

Epic bass fishing!
6 HOUR 2pm-8pm FISH / SHARK SLAYER on August 23, 2025 • 3 adults
I booked a six hour afternoon trip August 23 to do some ocean fishing. This was the first time ocean fishing for us. After booking it. Steve, the owner contacted us and gave us a bunch of information and details about the trip. Captain Noah took us out and got us on to a constant action of bass and even was able to catch a Mako shark before the end of our trip. At the end of our six hour trip we finished catching over 100 calico bass, with a mix of sheep head, barracuda, Sandbass, and a Mako shark! Thanks again, Captain Noah we had a great time! Looking forward to the next one!

Bonita Rodeo!
3 HOUR 5am-8am FISH/SHARK COMBO on August 12, 2025 • 4 adults
Everything this team had control over was top notch. From the ease of booking, to the trip communications, to the boat and gear quality. You can tell this team really cares about the experience they provide. Great job! While we did not have nonstop action (not for lack of trying), it’s called fishing people! We did get into one time frame that produced a Bonita on virtually every cast (yes-I do mean every cast). We even had a thrill when the shark reel started clicking (turned out to be a nearsighted bat ray). I will definitely use this team again and will recommend them (without reservation) to my friends and family. Thank your captains Steve and Noah.
