Thanks for an amazing time out on the dirty boat! I had a great time catching my first ever creepy crawlers. You know its a great day of lobster catching when you're having to toss back some of the smallers ones to make way for the jumbo's. My reward, a fantastic dinner after long day out at sea. Also, It... More

We only booked at the last minute as the weather had been mixed this week and were lucky to get a half day cancellation. My two sons and I had a blast and they were thrilled to land a Barracuda each. Thanks to Capt Joe for persisting until we found the right spot and Mate Galen who worked hard to... More

Our visit was short because it was way too windy for us to fish. So Capt. Joe and his mate took us out for a ride while they pulled the stone crab traps. I'd never seen that done so it was very entertaining and we had a delicious stone crab dinner later. More

I am 14 years old and I went with my parents on the Dirty Boat. I was very surprised how much fun I had. It was a really amazing trip and hope to come back soon. Captain Joe is a cool guy. More

My wife already wrote one review. I just want to add mine. Joe is not only a great charter captain but a fisherman at heart. Even though we were a little late heading back because he wanted my wife to catch a big amberjack after I did that didn't,t bother him. Then while running in he saw more birds and... More

My husband and I always go deep sea fishing every time we vacation. If your reading this review, you know how important that is. Our trip was an all day event. The entire time Gaylin (the fist mate) was talking to us, making sure everyone was comportable, checking to see if we wanted or needed anything. We got three "Amber... More

While planning our trip to the Keys, my 18 yr old and I were thinking, " huh...sporting fishing??? Doesn't sound like much fun!" Well!!!! We were fortunate enough to luck into a split charter ( Thanks Steve & John! You are the best) on the incredible 'Dirty Boat'. The Captain, Joe Saba and Mate, Galen are extremely good at ensuring...

Had a great time on the Dirty Boat. We targeted sailfish and had 4 bites in teh first 15 minutes of fishing. Ending up landing 3 sails, and filling out the day with tuna, snapper, and kings. Mate Galen worked his butt off to help us hook fish and ensure everyone had a good time. Capt Joe's enthusiasm for landing... More

We went out Sunday & Wednesday. Each time the crew went all out to put us on the fish. Sunday we caught black grouper,mahimahi & lost a big shark. That shark fight was awesome. Today we also caught mahimahi & sail fish. We had A little sail on early. Then later that day we had 3 sail fish at 1... More
