I want to give a huge shoutout to Six Chuters Charter in Marco Island for making my birthday…read morefishing trip unforgettable! My wife booked a deep-sea fishing adventure for me, but as the day approached, the weather took a turn for the worse--cold and windy conditions. However, the team communicated with us ahead of time, offering the option to reschedule or go ahead with the trip. We decided to go for it, and I'm so glad we did! Captain Kevin met us at Rose Marina, and we set off full of anticipation. Unfortunately, the Gulf was too rough, so we had to turn around. Instead of giving up, Captain Kevin took us to some backcountry fishing spots to wait for the winds to settle. After a couple of hours, he offered us the choice to either call it a day and go back without any charge, or try again to head out to the Gulf. We decided to give it one more go--and this time, it paid off! Captain Kevin got us on a huge variety of fish, including Snapper, Mackerel, Ladyfish, Grouper, and even a Lionfish! We caught fish non-stop until our cooler was packed full, and we had an absolute blast doing it. What could have been a canceled trip turned into the perfect day, all thanks to Captain Kevin's persistence and dedication. As a bonus, Captain Kevin cleaned 72 oz. of fresh Snapper fillets, and we were able to feed our entire party of nine at Cocomo's! Thank you, Captain Kevin, for going above and beyond to ensure we had such an amazing time. We'll definitely be back for more!

Great fishing charter for the season.

Took about 45 minutes to get to our first fishing spot and fun was had by all! Once the bites started to slow, then onto the next spot. We relocated about 5 times and had success in all the areas that our captain chose for us. Our hooks never went without bait, unless there was a fish on the end who had already swallowed it. Quite a few fishy thrives got our baits, but we reeled the thrives in eventually! So many Lane Snappers were caught, a way too many grouper (though all too small to keep), a blue fish, and a Spanish mackerel. It was a great experience gift that was enjoyed by all, especially since we got to cook the gigantic bag of already cleaned fish as soon as we got home.
