Went out on 12/3/23 with a group of 4 guys.  We caught several Sea Bass and Trigger fish. About 25 keepers in total. Also caught a few vermillion and some snappers we had to throw back. Saw a few Cobia as well but missed out on catching those.

All in all a fun trip and Chris is a great guide and Captain. He made our experience fun and stress free which is exactly what we hoped for. Highly recommend you go out with Chris and the Sweet Lips Fishing charter

Words can’t describe how great this experience with Captain Chris was.  Not only did he make sure that the day was a blast from start to finish, but he knows EVERYTHING about these waters.  The knowledge he has is generational and he’s spent his entire life fishing the Jacksonville waters.

To put it this way, we were so successful that we packed our massive cooler to the brim, set tons aside to give to family and friends, gave Chris almost half of the catch because we couldn’t imagine taking any more home, we’re giving bags of fish filets out to strangers at the marina, and still can’t fit half of what we brought home in our freezer.

My husband and I have been fishing a million times but this was our first deep sea experience.  This man knows how to find and catch fish like no other.  He taught us so much and was so fun to spend that 8 hours with.  We went to multiple different spots, including a couple old shipwrecks that were VERY active. 

Had we been inshore with Chris, we would probably have caught even more, which is a scary thought!  I’m sure that charter would have been insane as well.  We will most certainly be booking with him again this summer.

Lastly, Chris has all positive reviews, minus maybe two outliers.  Just as a reminder when you do book with him: you’re GOING to have an amazing time out there.  But if you happen to go out on a day where the weather isn’t the best, the water is a little choppy, or the fish just aren’t biting that day, just remember that’s the way it goes sometimes.  It has nothing to do with his ability.  If you can’t go out and catch a ton of fish with Chris, then no one could have helped you that day. 

Thanks again, Chris!  We can’t wait for our next charter with you but will need to wait a while until we clear space in the freezer or make more friends. ?

Chris was fun,  professional and knew his stuff.  He got us on the fish right away and we were able to have a nice variety of big and small catches. We were new at charter fishing but he made it easy for us.  We had six in our party but didn’t feel crowded on the boat. Everyone had a great day and made a lifelong memory.  If you’re looking for a good captain, Chris is your man.
