May 21, 2026I did a good bit of homework prior to booking this charter and I'm so grateful I did! We decided to go with Captain Christian for the 8 hour private island deal and I couldn't be happier. He was very friendly and approachable from the moment of meeting him. It was my husband and I with our 6 year old son on the trip. My son's first boat ride as well! Captain Christian was wonderful! Made us feel very comfortable and had a fun kid side which was perfect for us. We spent a good chunk of the day fishing, listening to music and just having good conversation. The island time was my favorite. My son was living his best life, finding cool shells, playing with his shovel/bucket set. Ended the day with my husband catching a shark! Oh....got to see dolphins and a sea turtle too!!! A wonderful day filled with great memories I'll cherish forever. Thank you Captain Christian for a great day! We will be back!

May 20, 2026What a great trip Christian put us on fish everywhere he took us. Awesome customer service . An expert guide who knows exactly where and what species is in every spot we fished. You can't go wrong with this charter... Worth every penny. Can't wait to come back next year.

April 23, 2026This fishing trip exceeded our high expectations BY FAR! We caught atleast 7 different types of fish. Captain Christian knows what he's doing! He knew the spots to go to and is very friendly and accommodating. We even caught exotic fish which we didn't even know was an option. We ended the trip catching 2 sharks at the same time! If we're ever back in the area we WILL book this private fishing trip again!

April 22, 2026If you’re looking for good fishing with an extremely talented captain with no grill or fancy you’ve found the right choice ! My son (11 yrs old) and I spent a fun filled successful afternoon of catching all different species ! When we return to Daytona we are definitely going back !

March 18, 2026Christian was a great guide, super knowledgeable about all things fishing! My son and his friend caught over 30 fish including 5 sharks. Even with not great conditions they battled through and it was overall an awesome experience. Couldn’t recommend more, made our entire spring break!

March 12, 2026We had an amaimg time with Captian Christian! we caught 10 different species of fish, every person caught more than four fish each! He’s a great teacher and finder of a good hull! as we were coming in for the day, he said “one more time” .... both my husband and son caught black top sharks at the same exact time. they both had a fight to reel um in!! Then Cap filleted our fish and suggested we take them to Millie’s restaurant... another great suggestion. delicious!!! it was the perfect day!!

February 22, 2026My husband and I had an awesome, relaxing time. I think we ended up with 12 different species of fish caught? We honestly lost count as we kept pulling them in. Caught several small sharks which was super exciting. Just a really relaxing, enjoyable time with a lot of laughs and no judgment from Christian on our fishing skills----finally got the hang of catching those shrimp stealing Pinfish!

November 8, 2025Captain Chris was incredible. He’s extremely knowledgeable and experienced, and he really knows his fish and the local waters. He was friendly, patient, and great with kids. The whole trip was a home run. Catching a shark was on my bucket list, so thank you, Chris — that moment meant a lot. My 8-year-old hasn’t stopped talking about the trip and everything he learned. I could go on and on about how amazing the experience was. A solid 10/10. Thank you for the memories we’ll carry for years.

November 5, 2025Captain Christian was fantastic. He made the entire trip relaxing and fun, and we all caught a nice variety of fish. He really paid attention to what we needed and made sure everyone felt comfortable. The boat isn’t your typical charter setup, but it ended up being perfect for our family — lots of seating and plenty of space to fish. Honestly, I liked it even more than the usual center consoles. I’d absolutely book with him again.

August 13, 2025This trip was everything my family needed and more. It wasn’t just a fishing trip — it was an experience we’ll remember for a lifetime. We caught all kinds of fish, from stingrays and pufferfish to sharks, and the captain knew exactly what he was doing the whole time. I watched my oldest light up like a kid again, a smile I haven’t seen in years. That alone made the day worth it. We’ll be back every time we’re in Florida, no question. For a fishing boat, it was incredibly clean — no mess anywhere, and we felt comfortable sitting wherever we wanted. On top of the fishing, we enjoyed about 40 minutes of relaxing boat time, taking in the views while the captain brought us to different spots. This trip will always hold a special place in my heart. Thank you, Captain. And thank you from the entire Butler family.
