Captain Andy consistently delivers exceptional fishing results, putting guests on snook, redfish, grouper, and sharks throughout each charter. His extensive local knowledge shines as he moves between productive spots, using light tackle techniques with 8-17# rods and fluorocarbon leaders for maximum excitement. Customers repeatedly mention how Andy never stops working until everyone catches fish, with many landing their personal bests including massive bull reds and quality groupers. Andy's patience with children and beginners creates memorable family experiences that become annual traditions. He takes time to educate guests about local species while maintaining an entertaining atmosphere filled with jokes and stories. His well-maintained boat rides comfortably even in rough seas, and customers appreciate his hands-on assistance with netting fish and providing fresh bait. Multiple families book repeat trips specifically requesting Andy's services.

Trip - Half Day Morning Fishing Trip in St. Petersburg - Snook, Redfish and Tarpon on July 31, 2025

Capt Andy was able to accommodate us after a last minute cancellation by another angler (boat trouble happen sometimes). We were so grateful to get booked with Andy, as my young kids were looking forward to this trip for over a year! Capt Andy replied that he loved working with kids, and his actions greatly reflected that! He was very kind and patient with my two kids (ages 12 and 10). He put us on fish, and made it almost foolproof to catch them! He took great pictures and sent them to us, so my husband and I could focus on fishing ourselves and enjoy the moment. If the fish stopped biting, he would quickly take us to the next spot! He was very knowledgeable and educated us about how the last hurricane impacted the community. You can tell he truly cares about his community and has a passion for what he does. We all caught fish, stayed hydrated (he provided water and snacks-and we went through several bottles of water because it was hot that day- and he wouldn’t just politely ask if we wanted water, but would just hand them out and tell us to drink up- he really took care of us), we had a lovely visit from a dolphin, which was magical in itself for the kids, and he filet our fish for us. He was so kind and patient, I couldn’t have asked for a better captain, especially for the kids! I would definitely fish with him again!

Trip - on May 23, 2022

Booked as a birthday gift for my wife and could not have been happier. We went with our friend and his 6 year old son and Captain Andy made sure everyone got fish on the line and paid extra attention to the litte guy. Not only did he catch his first fish ever but he caught several. Andy was very attentive and took us to several spots and even got us a shark on the line. We will definitely be booking with him again next time we visit Florida.
