We went out for 2 full day trips with Dog House Fishing Charters. Both days were excellent. Great start with finding bait fish and then going out to catch various fish. We caught Tuna, Mahi Mahi, Snapper, Mackerel and even a beautiful blue Parrot Fish! Captain Chris and Nick were really great. Our 6 year old son was with us... More

I chartered Capt. Chris's 53' Hatteras for 2 - half day charters, I can only state that they met and exceeded my expectations. I have chartered boats about 12 - 14 times, and I definitely can state Capt. Chris and his first mate Nick, were the best of al the crews, they worked their butts off to ensure a enjoyable... More

Capt. Chris and his mate Nick were wonderful. We chartered the Dog House for 2 days of fishing and we had a blast. Both Chris and Nick could not have been more helpful and they made sure we caught our fill of fish. (all of us on this trip were rookies so both of them stayed busy helping us) We... More

My family started going to the keys 3 years ago. We've fished on 3 different boats,an average of 3 times each year. The last one being The Dog House. Chris and Nick worked harder than the other boats we tried to make our day a great success. They really earn your trust, and will be the only boat we use... More

Captain Chris and his mate Nick were the most enthusiastic, patient, helpful folks to help us be successful. Chris found two others to share the boat with my wife and I. It turned into a most successful trip with everyone catching a variety of fish (20 plus) including a trophy mature sail that was a real thrill for me. The... More

You will not be disappointed with this Charter. Captain Chris is amazing - he is calm, knowledgeable, and will find the fish! We caught 4 huge sailfish out of 7 that we hooked. It was the best trip I've ever been on. So exciting and he and his crew are just great people! Very enjoyable. I highly recommend the Dog... More

Capt. Chris Scott and Mate / Capt. Nick are serious about fishing and insure you have a day of excitement and fun. I have fished with them for eight years and they always caught fish. The captain and mate know the waters well and enjoy what they do. The boat is very well maintained, looks good and is comfortable. Great... More

Captin Chris Scott and Nick showed us a GREAT time. First we caught live balleyhoo for bait ( in Charleston SC they come frozen in a box) and Nick opened a 12 ft cast net like it was nothing. Fishing was fast and furious. Had a big beautiful Sailfish on within a couple of minutes, then another and another. The... More

We fished two days this past week on the Doghouse Charter Boat. Capt. Chris Scott has been at it for a long time. I've fished with him since the late '80's. I wanted my son and son in law to experience the "right way" to deep sea fish in south Florida. The crew's knowledge and overall hospitality made for a... More
