We had a great time with Captain Heath! We caught red snappers, amber jack and a squirrel fish. Heath was great about explaining the day, showing us the technique to use, keeping bait on our hooks. We brought our son and his friend for the experience and they had a blast! We happened to be here duringsome colder weather so i wish i would hae brought a jacket. He gladly let us use his blaket though. He cleaned our fish as well, now jus to tote them back to Minnesota. Definitely recommend!!

Captain Heath took myself, my wife, and the boys out December 31st without hesitation!! 22 degrees didn’t stop us from wrangling in a 34 1/2” red grouper that gave me a fight and story that is unparalleled in my experiences of angling fish! Myself, my son, and his 3 closest friends (16 year olds), all caught pigs. One of the boys(Landon) caught a porky snapper that was over 36”!! Heath, thank you for sharing in what amounts to be a cornerstone in these young men’s growth and life! They’ll be talking about this fish story for decades to come! Renita says thank you too even though she was under 5 layers of clothing and a water proof blanket..what a trooper!!!!
Definitely going to mount my Grouper!

planned a deep sea guys trip and couldnt be happier with the outcome. there were a few of us who have done deep sea and others who havent. Heath was was awesome with his instruction and patience. we ended up being taking home the largest haul hes had 76 fish. the entire day was none stop catching would highly recommend to everyone to use reel job. we are definitely gonna be using him for our next trip next year. thanks again for the great photos and experience.

Fishing on the first day was pretty much non-existent, mother nature was just not having it. Five plus foot seas made for a rough trip but the Captain kept a cool head and still tried to make the best of the trip for us. He was so accommodating, he even planned a separate evening trip to make up for the time lost the previous day, talk about a stand up guy! My family and I would definitely recommend you consider a trip aboard with captain Heath.

Heath Howle went above and beyond to show me a good time. He accommodated me with a night trip offshore even though it wasn’t in his advertised openings. We left a few minutes before 5pm and by 530 we were fishing around a wake board we found floating that had attracted some dolphin fish and his personal favorite to eat: unicorn/filefish. Taught me how to spear them, which was a great new skill. The bite changed dramatically after the sun went down. Every place was cursed with schools of saltwater catfish. I caught six in a row before finally hooking a different species: Ruby red lips. I told him if I ever have a seaworthy boat I’m naming it the Salty Cat. I just name my freshwater Bass Raider Salty Cat, because why not?

We had a great conversation talking about his business, common obstacles and misconceptions, as well as getting to know each other on a more personal basis. He was very open to trying new things if I had a suggestion. When we met a school of squid he caught one or two (not easy with just a bait net) for our lines. I was deeply touched that he offered to extend our trip because he wanted every chance of us catching a big red snapper or grouper. I’m still sore and stiff and groggy but it was worth it!

A 25’ boat may seem small to be twenty miles offshore but the weather was perfect and I never felt Heath was unsafe or reckless. I’d heartily recommend him to anyone interested in plenty of action as well as some good keepers.
