Sam and his team at Down Sea Charters were terrific. Booking was easy and Capt Sam is a wealth of knowledge about the area. He is friendly, patient and perseverant- one of the best guides we've ever had. A perfect blend of sharing info about the fish and the area and getting us to do some great fishing! His boat and equipment are pristine. I highly recommend Down Sea Charters and now I have to go because my son is obsessed with catching more snook!

Sam in hopes to bring home some dinner…read more We're not foreign to the water or fishing, but needed a solid refresher to get the cobwebs off. From early in the booking process to when we first stepped on the boat, Capt Sam was extremely knowledgeable about what was biting, areas to fish up and down the intercostal, all while educating on technique & the local environmental factors at play. The entire charter Capt Sam was engaged and kept the vibes light & positive throughout. We ended up landing a few keepers (2 Pompano & Trout) and several smaller species like jack & pinfish. Capt Sam also provides some great advice on cooking up the Pompano after providing some nice fillets. Overall, if you're looking for a seasoned guide that is knowledgeable, good natured, and experience a awesome day on the water with one of the top flats boats on the market then you're in for a treat with Capt Sam. great day and will be back for another round.

My father never had an interest in it and I guess that transferred to me as an adult. Now I have young kids and my 8 year-old son has a desire to fish. It wasn't something I suggested, he requested it all on his own. We've been fishing a few times since moving to Vero Beach. It's all been pier fishing but my son wanted more. Researching the subject, I met Captain Tim through mutual friends online. An interesting person with years of experience. Meeting Captain Tim at Veterans Memorial Island Sanctuary, my friend Eli joined my son and me for a day of fishing. I wanted something "local" or "inland" meaning I wasn't interested in ocean fishing - I just wanted to make my son happy and not "rock the boat" as they say. And since Eli was the individual who took us pier fishing, my son wanted to return the favor by taking him out. Safety checks and instructions and we were off for a day on the Indian River Lagoon. Captain Tim provided a few options and we took his suggestion at heading south toward Fort Pierce. Along the way, Tim explained the various landmarks. He seemed very knowledgeable of the area and its history. Fish were light on our particular experience - we caught enough to make two sandwiches and a bowl of soup - but it was a great experience. A number of fish caught didn't meet the minimum size requirements and had to be thrown back in the water. With that said, it wasn't about the size of the fish, but the number of fish actually caught. We caught three times as many as we kept. Six hours on the boat and we were back at Memorial Island. Captain Tim cleaned all of the fish and bagged them for us. From start to finish, all that was required was to show up at the pier and jump on the boat. Friendly, knowledgeable and polite. Captain Tim provided a great experience. We look forward to fishing with him again. And I was just joking about the two sandwiches and bowl of soup. Five stars to Get Lost Charters of Vero Beach. William E. Lewis Jr. Vero Beach, Florida
