Surprised my wife with a trip to KW From Tampa. Decided to book a full day trip for the two of us with Captain Brad and First-mate Mick.
100% would make that decision all over again and plan to come back.
Fishing with them was great and we landed a good amount of mahi, a sailfish and plenty of yellowtail snapper. At the end of the day we were both tired, so it was worth every second. Our results for the day were all the better because we did hear other captains on the radio stating how tough a day they were having finding the bite.
Mick did an excellent job. He was nice enough to answer our many questions and to teach us some of the ways he was rigging bait. He was patient and friendly throughout the trip.
Captain Brad is clearly an experienced captain. When landing bigger fish you could tell he was driving strategically to help make reeling the fish in easier. He came down when we got multiple hits and was helping out. He taught us what we didn’t know and took his time with us.
The boat is immaculate throughout and well maintained. Very large and room for plenty of people. It was great for the two of us but looks like they’d have lots of space even with 6 anglers. The docks were nice and parking was easy.
All of this on a full day trip. The day before they had a dawn to dusk trip, so I know these guys were probably exhausted, but you wouldn’t have been able to tell. These guys were pros.l all around.
Speaking of, here is a pro tip: don’t go barefoot bc the deck does get slippery. So bring some shoes with good grip. Also, take your catch to Dante’s where they’ll cook it there ways for you (fried, blackened, pan seared) for about $10 and that comes with 3 sides.

Stephen, Thank you for your review. We will look forward to seeing you and your wife again in the future.
