On way to Orlando stopped in Fernandina Beach for a few days with my son and decided to surprise him with a little fishing. We booked 1/2 day with Captain Patrick Hemphill. So glad we did! He was an amazing guide, super patient with us (both novices), kept us safe and made our trip fun. He is very knowledgeable of the area. We lucked up with phenomenal weather. I highly recommend him and hope to be able to book him again in the future.

Took my great nephew and his step-father out on Patrick’s boat. New 25-foot Tidewater craft which is optimally rigged out for great fishing with maximum stability and plenty of room for 3-4 people to cast with no problem.  Captain Patrick had all the bait and cold drinks that we needed. He was very impressive with his knowledge of various fishing spots and was a great person to be with. We enjoyed ourselves very much and would absolutely do it again.

My husband and I highly recommend Gonna Miss Her Fishing Charters!  Captain Pat was early to the dock, was very safe and knowledgeable and had everything on board that we would need including drinking water, gnat spray and even an extra jacket. We didn’t catch huge fish, but not for a lack of him trying to put us where the fish were. We caught lots of little ones, and I was thrilled to catch my first trout!  Captain Pat gives you as much or as little assistance as you need. He takes care of baiting and removal of fish. We had a great experience and would love to go out with Pat again!

Great day spent with captain Pat. He even saw that it was supposed to be super windy a few days before the trip and kept us updated on weather. He wanted us to have a good time but didn’t want to jeopardize our safety. Winds were better & we were able to have a full 8 hour trip. Captain Pat is super patient, helpful, & also super entertaining. Great time out on a beautiful boat!

Frist, The Captain is a great guy. Wants everyone to have a great time and catch fish. It has been raining a lot in Florida so the water is Very muddy. The Captain was still able to still find the fish. It was a 4th of July fish trip so, fireworks and lots of people can effect the quality and size of fish…. And not the best time for big fish in the area… At the end of the day we caught fish all day and we had several huge fish hooked up that we couldn’t quite bring in. what else could you ask for?
