We really appreciate you taking the time to leave us such a wonderful review and we really hope to fish with you again soon!Tight lines,Capt. Will954-522-9399 Louis pOctober 15, 2025Verified Great Adventure Booked this trip on short notice on a holiday weekend and Will made sure everything was set up on the day and time we wanted to work with. The crew Super Dave the captain and Zac the first mate made us all feel comfortable and had great knowledge of the waters and fishing in the area. We caught some King fish and a couple of Bonitas but the prize fish was the Mahi Mahi we caught using the captains chair to reel it in. A great time was had by all we took the Mahi Mahi home and cooked it that night. It was delicious. Looking forward to booking again.
Owner's reply
Louis-I want to thank you so much for booking with us. I'm so glad to hear you had a great time fishing with Dave and Zach. They told me it was an absolute pleasure fishing with you and your daughters. I'm happy to hear you were able to catch a bunch of King Mackerel and Bonita. Landing that Mahi from the fighting chair and cooking it up at home must have been quite satisfying as well; there's nothing like fresh fish!We also want to thank you for taking the time to review our business. It really helps us out a lot and for that we are truly grateful! We really look forward to having you back out again soon.Tight lines,Capt. Will954-522-9399 Amity WOctober 11, 2025Verified Don’t Tell Mom Sports fishing trip! We came down as a family and did the 4 hour fishing excursion.

We are very grateful for your recommendation and we can't wait to have you back onboard again soon!Tight lines,Capt. Will954-522-9399 Matt MAugust 11, 2025Verified Last minute trip! Amazing! Where do I begin…the entire crew at “Don’t Tell Mom Sportfishing” is amazing!! This was the first deep sea charter for both my Daughter and myself.Every interaction from the initial phone conversation to docking after the trip was extremely professional. Both Captain Will and his crew (First Mate Zach) constantly went out of their way to communicate everything to us. They kept us in the loop and well informed so that we were entertained but also, learned about the fish that we were catching as well as the ocean environment that they live in. These guys went above and beyond to ensure that my Daughter and I caught a variety of fish (Even a big Nurse Shark) and had a great all around experience!We loved the boat too! Very clean and comfortable and the crew was well equipped and had everything loaded onboard for a very safe and enjoyable experience!So happy that we found these guys and truly appreciate their honesty, hard work, expertise, patience and good sense of humor too! We truly look forward to the next adventure with these guys!!

Such an amazing time hanging with Will & Christina on our charter.
