I booked this trip for my dad (81) and daughter (21) and they both had a terrific time. My dad was impressed with how much effort Captain Fred put into the trip, moving to spots where they had great success catching fish. He is knowledgeable, personal and helpful. My daughter loved the whole experience and both said would book Captain Fred again in a heartbeat. It was definitely a memory-maker! Also, Captain Fred expertly filleted their trout and they took it to The Fish House in Bonita Springs... Meer

We took this charter since we had a morning to kill and love to fish. Captain Fred was absolutely amazing, communication was excellent and he was as friendly as could be. Additionally, he was extremely knowledgeable about the species in the water and how to go about catching them. We hit multiple honey-holes, caught multiple species of fish, and even though the time of year we were fishing in the bites can be few and far between we saw a lot of action. I couldn’t recommend Captain Fred and any... Meer

Took my 17yoa grandson and his girlfriend who are visiting me from California for a morning fishing trip with Captain Gowdy. Was prompt at the dock, and provided ample guidance and direction for 3 novice fishermen. Put us on the fish in first hole and we had a wonderful time, even in the extreme heat of Florida summers. Would chatter again if the opportunity arises. Teens loved the experience and we all caught fish (snapper), which we ate that afternoon.

The mark of a great captain, making a trip fun even if the fishing is slow. We caught snook, redfish, jacks and snapper. So to me it was a very successful trip, but it seems like the whole fleet struggled. Fred worked his butt off to find the fish covering miles of water. He gave us great instruction, and helped whenever it was needed. Fred is definitely a pro at pulling lures out of the trees we casted into! Will definitely book again

Fred was knowledgeable, and helped us catch over a dozen fish each between my son and I. We caught 5 different species( jack crevalle, catfish, mangrove snapper, black drum, and sheepshead! great times !
