Had a great time fishing in the Florida sunshine! TJ was on time, helpful and gave great directions for reeling in the King Mackerel, yellowtail snapper and we even caught a shark! At the dock, filleted up the fish, gave us tips on how to best prepare our catch. Great time, fun experience and very professional service. Keep up the great work!
We had a great time fishing with Captain TJ on the reef near Marathon! Lots of Mangrove Snapper were caught. The Captain is very professional and experienced plus he gave us a great tip on what restaurant to go to have them cook some of our catch.
Capt. Gene was awesome! We caught tons of snook, redfish, and trout, which is exactly what we were targeting. Tackle and boat were in perfect shape and and the bait was caught that morning. Saw lots of other charters that day, but didnt see anyone else catching fish. He was also great with the kids. Ill be going back!
Awesome trip. Great fishing experience.
It was an excellent day. Captain TJ was very helpfull and we catched many fish so it was a great experience!
Caught lots of fish would definitely go back next time in the keys
Went to the Keys for the first time and after hearing about the wonderful fishing especially around Marathon, decided to book a fishing charter. Emailed Captain TJ and he responded the same day and called me on the phone the following day. He also confirmed our trip plan one day prior to make sure everyone was on the same page. He was ready to go as soon as we arrived at the marina. His boat was clean and well maintained. This was the first time fishing for our young boys and they had a blast. Due to their age, we started of fishing for yellowtail snapper. He showed them what to do, was very patient with them, encouraged them, and made sure they had a blast. The bite wasnt the best so we moved on after 15-20 minutes. The next spot wasnt that great either so we tried some wreck fishing. Again, no luck there but Captain TJ was determined to get us more than just a couple of fish. At our last spot, we ended up with 10 vermillion snapper and then headed back to the marina. Once back Captain TJ filleted and packaged our fish. He also recommended Lazy Days where they would cook our fresh catch and it was fabulous. The bite was not the best to start off with but we came back with 14 fish (another charted that returned at the same time only came out with 6-8 fish). We had a wonderful time with Captain TJ and will definitely fish with him again if we are in Marathon.
