Captain Derek put me on fish quickly! We caught numerous Sea Trout, Jacks, Mangrove Snappers, and Lemon Sharks.  Unfortunately, I lost a couple of snooks and snappers, but that’s on me, as he knows where the fish are located! He is a knowledgeable, accommodating and friendly guide.  His boat is new (12/5/25), and his fishing gear/bait was right sized for our trip.  Most importantly, he’s a good communicator- tell him what you want to fish for, and he’ll set you...

We had an absolute blast, I can’t recommend it enough. As a NYC kid it was my first time fishing and my only goal was to catch dinner for that evening. The captain made sure that happened, from ocean to our bellies in under 2 hours. We’ll definitely be booking again next time we’re down in the keys. Unbelievably fun experience.

We were a group of 6 for a family fishing trip. Different levels of experience and ages from 10 to 62. Captain Eric’s energy, enthusiasm absolutely made our trip, coupled with the fact he has the cleanest, smartest boat I’ve seen for a trip of our size. He’s a great captain and took us to the best spots. We would definitely use him again and recommend him to groups 100%.

Capt. Derrick had no issue putting us on different species of flats fish, like snook, redfish and tarpon, but sometimes getting fish to cooperate is tough. We were able to a few fish, but had many strikes, hookups and misses. We were also able to see many other species wildlife up close, like dolphins, rays, sharks and even crocodiles. All In the Everglades National Park.

We were looking to get a last minute fishing trip in on christmas day and he was able to fit us in.  Knew right where to take us, we were able to bring in a couple fish.  Snook, snapper and jack crevale.  over all great time
