Exceptional day!
3 Hour Nearshore on November 12, 20252 adults
we had an amazing day fishing with Brian! He was kind and courteous and kept the day moving very quickly. We fished three different shipwreck sites and caught several small fish and then did trolling and caught king mackerel. we then went fishing for Tarpon and shark. it was already time for our charter to be over but my husband snagged an 8 foot 200 pound nurse shark and Bryan kept our trip going for another two hours to help us get great photos and video! It was an amazing trip and I highly recommend it! Super safe and we felt it was the highlight of our vacation!

Best Part of our Whole Trip!
Half Day Trip - 12:00 PM on October 6, 20252 adults
My wife and I were celebrating our 15 year anniversary with a 5 day stay down in St. Thomas. We each chose one activity, with me choosing fishing and she chose zip lining. While we had fun on both, we both agree that the boat ride / fishing / snorkeling was the highlight of the trip! Captain Bryan is amazing, he let us do as much (or as little) of the fishing activities as we wanted, and gave us the option to do different kinds of fishing and explained what the likely outcomes would be - i.e. bottom fishing you'll likely catch more fish, but they will be smaller, trolling you'll get bigger fish but they won't come as frequently, etc. We chose to do both, and I had reached out prior to our trip to ask if we could also spend a little bit of time snorkeling, ideally somewhere close to sea turtles. Just like how he put us right on the fish (I was amazed, it was literally seconds after dropping the bait that we had fish on), he also put us right on top of the turtles - and even provided some snorkeling gear for us! We got absolutely POURED on during the trip, but since we were snorkeling anyway it didn't matter, and if we wanted we could have stayed under the covered portion of his boat to avoid most of the rain. We literally lost count of how many Lane Snappers and Silverfish we caught, and we also reeled in two barracuda's, including one that was close to 3 feet long! If we ever end up back in or around St. Thomas, I will without a doubt be looking for Captain Bryan and Good Times Charter for another trip!

Fantastic from shiny trip! Captain Bryan is the best!
Half Day Trip - 12:00 PM on July 7, 20252 adults
My little sister and I went fishing with Captain Bryan and had an absolute blast! From the moment we got on the boat, he explained everything clearly and made sure we were comfortable and confident. He was super patient and fun, and truly made the whole experience memorable for both of us. We caught a ton of fish and laughed the whole time – it was honestly one of the best days we’ve had together. Just a heads up: don’t bring bananas on the boat – apparently it’s bad luck! 😂 If you’re looking to catch fish and have a great time while doing it, go fishing with Captain Bryan. You won’t regret it! 🎣

Best day of our life!!
3 Hour Nearshore on June 25, 20252 adults
I’m not one to really write a review or really much of a boat girl ( I get sea sick easy ) but I just want to give a huge shout out!! My husband and I booked this fishing trip for our honeymoon and boy Capt. Bryan DID NOT DISAPPOINT!! We both had an amazing time catching fish all morning! And if we weren’t getting anything, he made sure to move and put us on the fish. And he made sure to keep us both comfortable on the water which was very successful with keeping me from getting sea sick. He made sure to keep the boat in nice calm waters. We also really enjoyed the more personalized experience as we were the only ones on this trip. My husband caught and released a 3ft lemon shark and I caught a red grouper (the biggest fish of my life)! It truly was an amazing experience and we both will never forget this. And we will definitely rebook again!

What a great day!!
Half Day Trip - 12:00 PM on July 24, 20252 adults
Captain Bryan was great! He moved us around and got us on the fish. It was a pretty windy day and he made sure to keep us in fairly calm waters while keeping the action consistent. Once we had enough keepers for dinner off to Cruz Bay we went to see if we could land something bigger. My son hooked up to a good sized Tarpon that he fought for a good 15 min all the way up to the side of the boat. Over all great day and would definitely repeat and highly recommend. Captain Bryan is very knowledgeable about each fish species as well as the islands themselves.
