jackAiIconJack AI Customer Experience Snapshot

Captain Tony Frankland consistently delivers exceptional inshore fishing results, with customers regularly catching 3-4 dozen fish across 8+ species including snook, redfish, trout, sheepshead, and mangrove snapper. He goes above and beyond by trapping live sardines early morning before trips and bringing live shrimp, ensuring non-stop fishing action even in challenging conditions like unusually cold weather or windy days when he skillfully navigates to protected river and mangrove areas. Customers appreciate Tony's laid-back, conversational personality and his patience with first-time anglers and families with young children. Year after year, families return for his reliable service, with many noting how he keeps everyone busy and excited throughout the charter. His professional approach includes weather updates, spotless boat preparation, and helpful coaching on landing techniques, creating memorable experiences that lead to repeat bookings.

We had an amazing time and caught so many fish that we actually lost count! Capt. Tony was fantastic—knowledgeable, friendly, and always ready to go. He guided us to multiple productive spots where we consistently caught fish. The trip was beginner-friendly but still exciting for experienced anglers. A perfect 10/10 experience!

The weather looked iffy, with thunderstorms predicted all day, but we trusted the captain’s experience to keep us safe—and we weren’t disappointed. We got a little wet at the start, but the rain soon cleared, and the fishing was excellent. We caught mostly sea trout, along with a few nice Spanish mackerel, catfish, ladyfish, and even some small hammerhead-looking sharks. The captain, boat, and equipment were all top-notch. It was a fantastic day on the water, and we would highly recommend this trip!

Tony was incredible! He’s super friendly, very knowledgeable about the waters, and offers a very reasonable price. He made sure everyone was involved and got plenty of action. We caught several keepers, he filleted them for us, and even recommended a great spot to have them cooked restaurant-style. I’m already planning our next trip with him—110% satisfied!

Captain Tony was excellent at communicating both before and during our charter. He was very helpful with my specific challenges and guided us to the fish while teaching techniques I hadn’t known before. The trip was both successful and thoroughly enjoyable!

What better way to spend my birthday than with Captain Tony! He put us on fish the entire time—the only pause was when we moved to a new spot. We caught 8 different species, including a barracuda. I highly recommend him!

We caught fish within the first 60 seconds of dropping our lines—including my first tarpon! The kids had a blast with non-stop action during this 3-hour trip.
