What would you recommend to anglers fishing in Hollywood, Florida for the first time?

If you are uncertain as to if you or your guest will get seasick, I strongly suggest you get a prescription strength patch and put it on the night before. We had a great time in the beginning but within the first hour after getting out to fish, three of the 4 kids were throwing up. The first mate was fantastic and the captain was also amazing. Great boat, great people and a goodtime despite the fact we had to come in early due to the kids getting seasick.

Book a full day trip to be able to get offshore and into some meat species. Our half day trip for my three sons and I was fine but if we wanted to get into heavier fishing we would have needed more time.

Remember to bring a motion sickness bracelet for anyone who has never been on a boat before , my son did get sick but didn't throw up, so next time we go on the boat we will be prepared for that. Other than that the trip was amazing and I would recommend it to everyone to try it.

Great weather, fish are everywhere. With the right tackle and gear your set to hook up big game fish.

Find a fishing service that will be closer to the fishing areas and truly cares about your experience rather than the logistics of the trip

Our trip was ruined by the Fishing Bookers service and by Capt. Josh. So I would rate it as a horrible experience.
