William our captain was great.
He made sure we had a great time!
Highly recommend him for a great day of fishing!

We met our captain (Tyler) at the docks, and we were off. We had a short stop to gather up some live bait fish and then headed out to fish for Lane Snapper. We caught as many as we cared to keep, it then our captain asked if we wanted to go try for something bigger.

We headed out further, 8-9 miles out, and tried for Cobia, Tyler was dead on once again. We had a great time and caught many fish, sometimes we had both of us fighting a fish at the same time. We caught one keeper and threw the rest back. 

I cannot say enough good things about Capt. Tyler he was very helpful and a truly nice guy. I know we will gladly book a trip with him again when we’re back in the area.

Also, the equipment was in great shape, from the boat to the fishing tackle, I feel like anyone would have a great experience.

Great time fishing with the Grand Kids

I can’t thank Capt. Tyler and Capt Andrew enough! We took our three girls (8, 9, and 11) out not just fishing for the first time, but offshore fishing for the first time as well. From the beginning Smokin Hooks was super responsive to questions, and took feedback for what we wanted to accomplish for the trip. The captains asked what we wanted to try for and I asked about trying to land a shark as my youngest is obsessed with them and the hammerhead is her favorite. Well guess what we caught, a hammerhead! She was so excited. We hit several spots so the kids could do some catch and release, we ended up with some keepers as well. Finally we went looking for a barracuda and sure enough, landed a huge one!

Captains Andrew and Tyler were super patient with the kiddos and gave them great instruction on how to do things. Really great guys. If you are looking to book a charter and especially with the family, I highly recommend Smokin Hooks.
