5 star ratingCaptain John was an incredible guide!! My husband and I are experienced boaters, he ( husband) an experienced angler. Within the 1st few mins. of meeting Captn John we knew we were in trusting & experienced hands. John took his time with me ( not experienced angler) & taught me step by step & within mins it was “ fish on!”. He sought out the good spots to catch fish, and catch we did! John is a very
experienced guide. We highly recommend him for your fishing fun in the keys!

5 star ratingAmazing method of fishing. They put us on the spots the bottom fishing was a bit slow but since we were yellow tail fishing they allowed everyone an opportunity at the back of the boat and helped explain how to fish. Overall everyone caught fish to keep and throw back and was extremely fun.
