Captain Craig and Spencer did an excellent job getting us on the fish and ensuring a fantastic time. We landed 8 different species and gained valuable knowledge about each one. The crew was incredibly attentive, especially with our 6-year-old. We highly recommend their services!

We had an incredible fishing experience with Captain Craig and Spencer. We caught plenty of red snappers and they were both friendly and punctual. The boat was fantastic, and they even cleaned the fish for us right after we finished fishing, which was a nice touch. My wife and three boys had an amazing time. Highly recommend fishing with this crew!

We initially booked an afternoon fishing trip to enjoy warmer temperatures for our family of 5. However, the night before the trip, we were informed that only morning slots were available. Despite the change, we managed to make it work. Although our guide arrived 10 minutes late, he was generally good and handled the windy and less-than-ideal conditions (40 degrees with wind) well. Our family's primary focus was on catching a quantity of fish rather than aiming for trophy catches. When the bites were not happening, our guide quickly adjusted the strategy by trying trolling and changing fishing locations. He made multiple attempts to overcome the chilly and breezy weather. In the end, we were satisfied with the number of fish we caught, which our guide kindly cleaned for us to enjoy as a family dinner. The boat was clean and in great condition. Our guide came prepared with a variety of bait options for the morning. He was a friendly individual who put in the effort to ensure we had a good experience.

Captain and crew took good care of my five-year-old on the trip. The boat ride to fishing areas was relaxing and offered my child security. We caught grouper, barracuda, and various other fish. The boat was clean and the equipment well-maintained. I would recommend this excursion to seasoned anglers or the nonfishing set.

Following the last-minute cancellation of a charter, we'd booked the day before, we had ample time to go fishing on the Gulf of Pensacola. Caught a good quantity of snapper on the hook, then hooked a shark. The kids also had a blast watching Blue Angels practice by a flight path—nothing they could do in rough seas, but they made it relaxing and enjoyable nonetheless.

We booked only about the last minute, and Craig handled everything from giving us directions from our cab driver to getting our dog into position for a picture. We went to a fishing spot and pulled our line up quickly and then went to another one having caught our limit in a matter of minutes. Great times and many great stories!
