Captain Josh listened to all the fish species I wanted to target, dedicating time to find each one. We caught some and missed others, but he did his best to put us on fish. At the end of the day, he cleaned our catch and sent it to Walt's, where it was cooked in 20-25 minutes. It doesn’t get any fresher than that. Thanks again, Captain Josh!

Had an amazing time fishing with Captain Josh. He is highly professional and truly knows his craft. We experienced continuous action for four hours and caught several keepers, which Josh expertly filleted for me. We caught a wide variety of fish and saw a lot of wildlife, including manatees that came right up to the boat. I definitely plan on booking a return trip next year!
