We are a family of 5, with kids ages between 7-12. This trip was absolutely perfect, truly amazing! We had captain Buddy who had a wonderful personality! Friendly, efficient and knowledgeable. One of our littles is obsessed with fishing and sharks, Buddy answered every question, concern, or fact the kid said with a genuine response. He truly focused on making sure the kids had an awesome opportunity.

When we pulled the crab traps he offered amazing education for everything in the traps. With Sharking/fishing we went to a few different locations to ensure that everyone (especially the kids) each got a chance to reel something in- that was truly the best part. He cared about them and their memories. We even got to see a pod of dolphins right by the boat! We caught an exceptionally large Bonnet Head shark , Black tip shark and blue fish! Afterwards he filet the catches we could keep and even recommended a local restaurant that would cook the fish for us! Overall hands down a wonderful experience, one we all would strongly recommend that anyone books! Truly amazing and wonderful! We plan to come back again!

My girls had a great time, as did my wife and I. Capt Buddy made things easy from the start, even for my special needs daughter that doesn’t walk so well. She got the crown seat and beamed the whole trip!
While the Blue Crabs weren’t biting, Capt Buddy had a pot ready to check…and it was loaded with delicious Stone Crab.
As for the other daughter… Capt Buddy’s explanation of the wonderful world of the marshes, changed a typical meh teenager to willing accomplice holding a Blue Crab for pictures… and asking when could we go again!  Not sure of that, but sure it will be with Capt Buddy!

Look no further!  Captain Buddy is the man.  What can I say but a perfect day.  The landing location got us out and fishing quickly and that really does matter.  More time fishing!  Buddy was really informative - truly we are intermediate fisherman and women but we learned so much about safety, the animals, how to hold sharks.  And Buddy put us on the fish in no time.  He had bait ready so we didn’t waste a lot of time going for baitfish.  But it didn’t take long for us to catch some Whiting which made for great bait.  Then we started catching the bigger stuff!!  We hooked and saw 6 different species of sharks and landed 4 different species.  We even caught a stingray and a cannonball jellyfish. Everyone in our group caught the biggest fish they’ve ever caught! We saw manta rays jumping.  Felt like a National Geographic documentary.  Fishing is fishing -not everyone will have the luck we did but one thing is certain you will have an amazing trip with Buddy. We will be back again 100%!!  Thank you Buddy!

Captain Buddy took me, my two sons, son-in-law and two 5yo grandsons out on a 3-hour trip. We were catching fish within the first 15 minutes! Captain Buddy was great with the grandsons and spent alot of time educating us on everything fishing! We caught sharks and catfish, as well as several stone crab and blue crab! I would definitely recommend Captain Buddy and we’ll definitely use him again on future trips!

Capt Buddy really went out of his way to ensure my two daughters (10 and 6) had a good trip.  He had a lot of educational things to show and tell and we all learned a lot.  Fishing was a little slow (not his fault)  but we all managed to reel in something.

We even came away with a filleted bonnet head and cooked it tonight with the recipe Capt Buddy’s wife gave us for shark tacos.  Wonderful!

He did a wonderful job interacting with my girls and they’re shy but he had them out of their shell by the end of the trip.  We will book again with Capt Buddy.
