Honestly I don’t even know where to start…

I got a text a week ahead of the trip from the Captian, Trey Baker. He was asking if it would be okay if he called me to iron out the details of the trip, asking me exactly what I wanted to do and what I wanted to catch. He had lots of great info about what they they been seeing on other trips and what was in season, creel limits, everything. It was from that minute I knew it was going to be a great trip. We boarded the boat in the early afternoon. It was in the water ready to go. It was all cleaned up and the guys were so welcoming. I was nervous about bringing my son (age 6) on the trip, all my worries were gone as soon as I met them. We had an amazing day. It was panoramic views all the way around. We caught some live bait and they made sure to let my son be a part of it all. I didn’t even say anything, they just took it upon themselves to make sure he was having fun, no matter what. When we were headed to the fishing spots the dolphins put on a show for us, jumping, diving, splashing. I would have paid good money just for that, and the trip had just started! When we got to the first spot we were on the fish within seconds. We caught fish.. after fish.. after fish. My arms were absolutely exhausted.. after the FIRST spot. We went on for several hours and several more spots, catching more species than I could remember. My son wanted to catch a shark, he told me about a thousand times he wanted to catch a shark for two weeks leading up to the trip, and catch a shark he did! A 5 ft bull shark fit the bill nicely! I could go on for hours and tell you exactly what we experienced, in all honesty though, you should just book with Southbound and experience it yourself, I know I’ll be back on their boat next year, making even more memories with my family.

Tight lines gents, until next year

Silas,

(P.S. I’m just a regular guy from Missouri, I hadn’t met these guys until today. What I’m writing here is 100% real. I’m writing it because I know these guys will make your day amazing and I know how hard it is to pick who you want to fish with)

The weather was not good but we made the most of it and had a blast with Capt Trey and mate. We caught a nice variety of fish and the boat had a lot of room. The crew was entertaining and fun . Will book again. Thank you Southbound

We had so much fun and caught so many fish. Best charter we have taken so far! Everyone in the family caught fish and the crew was nice professional funny and entertaining the whole time. Definitely will book next time we are in the Pensacola area!
