My son (Ryder who is 10) and I Had an awesome day on the water. Fishing with Captain Jimmy was like fishing with family, from the moment we pushed off from the dock he was having fun with my son and I, which really put my son at ease (first time fishing the ocean for him).
We arrived at the fishing grounds after a nice ride across the bay and Jimmy put us on some fish right away. Ryder cashed in first with a nice Redfish, not a keeper but a great first salt water fish. We continued to catch a variety of fish for the next couple hours, Captain Jimmy was great at teaching us several techniques and it was really great seeing my son pick up on them and ultimately boating the two largest Speckled Trout.
At the end of the trip we not only had caught some great fish and had a great time on the water but we had made a new friend in Captain Jimmy. I was thoroughly impressed with his patience and willingness to work with Ryder. Ryder commented that he couldn’t wait to fish again with Jimmy next year.
Thank you again for a great trip and for lighting the saltwater fishing fire in my son! We will be back next year and certainly will be calling Capt. Jimmy again!

You guys were great and patient. I think Ryder had a fire in his heart before we even started. He took to it and stayed with it the whole trip. I think he will always be a fisherman. Thanks for the review, I’m looking to seeing you again next year.
I am from Nebraska- so the whole experience was new to us. We are experienced fishers - but have never chased any salt/coastal/bay fish. Capt Jimmy was awesome! I chose Bent Rod Charters because it was a smaller boat and in the bay. It was just my son (10) and I on the boat - so we had all the help we needed. The mission was to catch some reds and trout - mission accomplished! Capt Jimmy is great with kids was very patient with my son (and myself😁) I think we all had a great time, plenty of laughs and FISH to go around. Always remember: They are called fishing Guides …not Gods! They can get you to the fish they can’t always make them bite and can usually only reel in one pole at a time (Capt Jimmy is the exception!).
Thanks for a great day and memorable experience!!

Thanks, I had a good time for sure! I guess we will always wonder what that big one that got away was, I have never had one strip drag like that. Y’all have fun and be safe going home.
It don’t get much better than fishing with captain Jimmy! There was not one box that he did not check. We enjoyed the trip so much. We missed on a couple spots and hit bunches of fish on others. Captain made sure to cut bait when the fishing slowed in an area.
Thank You Captain Jimmy for the professionalism, conversation, and putting us on the fish all day! They were tasty!
