We originally were supposed to go out on a Monday which I planned in case we caught a lot of fish it would give us an entire week.  That being said, the weather didn’t agree with my best laid out plans but Capt Ken was able to get us out on Friday.  While Ken wasn’t there, Capt Eddie, first mate Spencer and a new crew mate Braxton were awesome.  We were on a 6 hour trip and went out about 12 miles off shore.  On our first stop, Capt Eddie had us yank our lines and off we went to the next stop.  The next crop yielded quite a few fish before we picked up again.  We finished the day with 70 Mingos, 9 White Snapper and 1 Trigger.  While the boat is older, it was more than sufficient in meeting our needs.  We had 3 dads and our 5 sons ranging from 10-14 years old.  Each one said they had an incredible time.  Thank you Capt Eddie, Spencer and Braxton.

Though it was a bit cold and rough we could not have asked for a better boat/captain/crew.  Captain Ed did a great job keeping us over the fish (we caught more than several other people out on trips) and the crew kept everybody baited up and in the water.  It was great to have a boat with a cabin to hang out in just to get out of the weather. 

We landed a ton of vermilion snapper and trigger fish with one scamp grouper and some red snapper that were not in season. 

Again, the crew was great.  They were quick to get the fish off and were clear communicators when the boat was needing to move.  Best of all, fish were cleaned quickly and well shortly after getting back to dock and we really enjoyed having the fresh fish to eat that night.  There are options for local restaurant kitchens to ‘cook your catch’ but we were ready to be back home. 

So, if you are down to catch some fish I highly recommend these guys.

Great day today on Just B Cause Charters. It was one of the hottest days of fishing I can remember but the AC was working well inside when we needed to cool off. Captain Ken put us on the fish. Kids had a blast! I think I had more fun than they did. Matt was an excellent mate. He kept us baited up and made sure we landed as many fish as possible.

I was really looking forward to catching a limit of red snapper and had hopes of catching some mahi and wahoo. Captain told us during the pre-trip meeting that we most likely would not catch any mahi or wahoo because he had not seen any in weeks. We we easily caught our limit of red snapper and it just so happens that I caught two mahi on back to back casts. We we lost another one on light tackle soon after.

Captain Ken stopped so we could check out a rather large whale shark between fishing spots. It was a really cool experience. I can’t remember seeing one up close like that before.

When we got back to the dock, Matt put our fish on the board so we could see our catch. Several other boats were also returning at the same time. All had more people on them and less fish per person on their boards. No other boats caught Mahi. Matt cleaned and bagged our catch. We merry with a cooler full of fresh gulf fish.

Just B Cause may not be the fanciest boat in the fleet, but captain Ken and his mate Matt make up for it by putting you on the fish and making sure you catch ‘em. If you want to cruse around in style and chance going home empty handed, find another boat. If you want to catch a limit of fish with some really cool people, hire Just B Cause Charters!

Thanks guys. Great job today!

We were in Navarre for a family vacation and 10 of the guys took an 8 hour trip on the Just B Cause June 27,2023   Captain Ken and the first mate Dexter did a great job with the large group. Captain Ken found the fish and Dexter kept us all baited up and fishing. We had our limit of Red Snapper is less than an hour   We moved on out to sea further and finish the trip catching several more fish. This is the 3rd trip that I have taken in the past 5 years and all with different crews, but this was definitely the best and I would highly recommend it to anyone interested in some great gulf fishing
