What Our Customers Say

Rated 5 out of 5
Great charter went on 10 hour grouper fishing split trip. Limited on red grouper before lunch. Nice boat with great captain and mate.
Pat D.
I did the 15-hour trip to the middle grounds with five friends. Unforgettable to say the least! Capt Avery and the 1st mate, Jeff, were awesome and on the spot to take care of you. The Capt got us on a lot of fish and then we just had to do our part. Listen to them and you'll catch monster fish, otherwise you'll just feed the fish. The three-hour beanbag ride out to the middle grounds and back was great... slept most of the way. Definitely will be booking with them again when friends come to town and want an unbelievable bucket-list adventure!
Pdiddy
We had a great time with Captain Avery! He put us on the fish first thing and it didn’t stop all day. I am not an experienced angler and he was right there with me all day helping out. We caught tons of grouper and snapper and hogfish. So much fun! Highly recommended!
