What Our Clients Say

Captain Will and his son made our fishing experience truly unforgettable! Their knowledge of the waters and fishing spots ensured a fantastic time. The sheer amount of fun we had was matched only by the impressive number of fish we caught—so many that I woke up the next day with pleasantly sore muscles. It was an absolute blast!

Went out on the four hour inshore trip and caught fish the whole time. Captain William Wise put us right where the fish were, and was very helpful. Would definitely recommend this charter to anyone looking to go out in Tampa Bay.
