My wife and I had a fantastic time.

Everything was easy and hassle-free with Hank from start to finish, and the fishing was fun! We had a short boat ride to the reefs and stopped at many great spots. I don't think I went longer than two minutes without taking a bite of some type. There are a ton of interesting species, and many are tasty as well. We chose to save what we could and did enjoy doing so!

We had a great day on the water with capt hank and his first mate havi. The wind was calm so we headed off shore about 6 miles to do some reef fishing and did great!

July 11th fishing trip, we booked hank about 2-3 months back. For the past week we talked, he was a responsive and just a real down to earth guy. Unfortunately the rain and wind pushed us out and was not able to fish but we still got out on the water for about 30 minutes. Although we weren’t able to fish I will definitely be calling hank back in the future to try and get out again. Great dude! Ps. If the weather conditions were right I knew he would have put us on fish! CALL HANK FOR YOUR FUTURE FISHING TRIP!!!!

While we were in Florida, my wife wished to go fishing. I knew we'd be in for a good time when I checked Capt. Hank's website, and we weren't let down. We also caught some Spanish Mackerel, numerous Sea Trout, and a Sheepshead. The fish stopped biting, and the captain was kind enough to pay the difference our excursion, so it ended up being a half-day trip. We would definitely use him again because it was well worth it! You may be sure that your vacation will be enjoyable as long as you realize that the goal is fishing, not catching.

We had a great time and caught a lot of fish. When the catches started to slow, the bank was great about taking us to different locations. We ended up with a lot of fish for dinner. Overall, a fantastic experience!
