Trip - Marathon Offshore and Inshore Fishing Charter for Grouper, Snapper, and Dolphin on June 3, 2025

Captain Craig was an excellent charter captain and put us on fish all day. He also gave excellent recommendations on where to take the fish to have it prepared. We also hired him to take our family to a sandbar and to take my younger kids fishing. We had a ton of fun at a gorgeous sand bar where we spent several hours playing in the unbelievably beautiful area. He then took us to a spot perfect for fishing with young children. My eight year old son caught lots of fish and had the time of his life. Thank you for a great time Capt. Craig!

Despite the initially unpromising skies, Captain Craig made a wise decision to delay our departure from 7 A.M. to 9 A.M. and it proved to be the right call. Once Donnie, our skilled mate, set the anchor, the fish started biting relentlessly. Over the course of six hours, we successfully caught an impressive array of 26 different fish species, making it a truly memorable day on the water. We extend our sincere gratitude to Captain Craig for providing my son, his friend, and me with an exceptional fishing experience, and we eagerly look forward to booking another adventure with Fun In The Sun Charters during our next visit.

What a great way to celebrate my birthday! Capt Craig and First Mate Donnie had us on the fish 30 seconds after hooks in the water! My husband and I had such a great time! These guys know their stuff and really went out of their way to make sure we had fun and caught fish. Well done on both counts, highly recommend
