My wife and I had a great time fishing with Captain Ray on the gulf side and caught lots of nice Snapper, Grouper, and even hooked a Cobia. We really appreciated his focus on us having a great experience. His knowledge of fishing and navigating the area is clearly outstanding and we really enjoyed talking to him and learning a lot about many aspects of being on the water and fishing in the area, as well as many other interesting facts. He was a lot of fun to fish with and gave us a lot of good advice on fishing from the shore and bridges on our own near where we were camping. We are looking forward to booking a trip to the Atlantic side when the weather allows.

Chartered our trip a a birthday present for my father. They promised us mahi-mahi; we came back with so much more! Not only did we come back with six mahi-mahi (and one tuna), we got to experience the sea on a beautiful day (a little sunshine, a little overcast, and even a nice little shower) out of sight of the land. The flying fish skipped around behind us and ahead of us, a few jellyfish drifted by, and we ended the trip drifting for a moment over the coral reef, peering down into the clear water, and even sighting a sea turtle! Our guides were professional, friendly and helpful, and seemed genuinely enthusiastic about their work, and about making our experience as good as they could - while keeping it real. We definitely plan on going back, and seeking out their services again!

Captain Raymond and Livin the Dream charters are second to none. Great communication with the Captain from the time we booked until the moment we left dock. He can put you on the fish, and show you a good time. Really liked the versatility of his boat!
If pictures can speak a thousand words take a look at these! Captain Ray is very knowledgeable and knew exactly what to do to get the bite on! Both he and Leah make a great team and provided an excellent experience. The boat is roomy and has exactly what you need plus some shade! We caught a ton of mahi-mahi and in a few hours were sitting in a restaurant eating it! Best experience!
