Captain Juan was a fantastic host! He was accommodating and accepted us with a last minute booking after our initial reservation was canceled by another charter. His communication with us was excellent. It was a blessing in disguise because we couldn't have asked for a better captain than Juan. His boat and equipment were nice and he was very friendly and knowledgeable. I will be back down in a few months for another trip and I won't have to waste my time searching for another charter as I'll definitely just book with Juan again. Thanks brother! 🤙

Juan and a million!!! After searching for a charter for me, my wife, and my sister I chose Juan based on one thing...fun. Most of the reviews I read talked about his “contagious jovial laugh”, which shows he’s an easy goin feller...and he was. Loved laughing at jokes, bad casts, and anything else one would consider funny. Just an all around good man. We had never fished on the ocean from a boat like this and Juan made the experience as comfortable as one can do for their guests. We fished under the skyway bridge and caught three different species such as Sheepshead, grey snapper, and the occasional red snapper. All were turned into amazing tacos with citrus toppings. Finger lickin good.!!!

I flew my son down from Ohio to Florida for his 13th birthday, treating him to a weekend at the beach and a guided fishing charter. The weather was a bit cool and breezy for Florida, which made for some choppy water, but Captain Juan knew just where to go. Even though it wasn’t peak season, we still caught a variety of fish and had a blast doing it! Coming from a freshwater background, we appreciated how Captain Juan patiently walked us through the techniques for fishing saltwater. My son picked up a lot of new skills, and we both had a memorable experience. We brought our mangrove snapper and sheepshead to a nearby restaurant and enjoyed an incredible feast—so much that we couldn’t even finish it all. Captain Juan was prompt, professional, and clearly knows his stuff. I’d absolutely recommend booking a trip with him—we’ll definitely be back when the weather’s a bit warmer!

Our second journey in two years with Captain Juan, and without a doubt, he is unmatched. His fishing expertise ensures you reel in fish, and his spacious boat comfortably accommodated our group of 4. With an abundance of live bait and fishing gear, we were busy fishing for the full 4 hours. Captain Juan, thank you once more – we'll definitely be back in the future!
