This was by far the best fishing charter I have been on. I live in Central Florida, have done fishing charters in the Atlantic and Gulf, and the experience I had on Pelagic Color was unlike any other. I booked this 8 hour charter for me and my friends as part of my bachelor weekend. Our group had some people who fish on a regular basis as well as some people who have never been fishing a day in their life. With Captain Marty at the helm giving us expert instruction, and his amazing first mate helping to rig up rods and put bait on hooks, EVERYONE was catching fish. Captain Marty would put us on a spot but if the fish weren’t biting he kept the boat moving around hitting different spots until we had fish onboard. Additionally there was inclement weather in the area the day of our charter, but Captain was able to use the onboard Radar system to keep us moving and run around any major storms to keep us dry and safe. The onboard concierge was also extremely helpful in making sure we had a drink in our hand, taking pictures, underwater videos, making sure we were having a good time, and so much more. There’s no doubt the price tag of this charter is on the higher end, but I can say it is 100% worth it, we all had the best time, and we will absolutely be booking again in the future.

Our kids wanted to take a fishing trip on our most recent family vacation. We saw the Pelagic Co. advertisement and booked a trip two days in advance. Captain Jonathan and his crew were amazing. The boat was fantastic. The kids (14,12,9) were able to catch a bunch of fish, each one larger than the last! It was very hot day but the crew made sure we had plenty to drink, answered all the questions in great detail. My husband has been on a few days trips in other locations in the south but said this is by far the best one he's been on! I would highly recommend Cpt. Jonathan and his crew.

Excellent day the water. Captain Butch had us on the fish the first mate was on it every time he was needed. Our steward/server made sure we ate timely and always had a drink in our hand. Highly recommend this charter.

Super Friendly and professional all at the same time. Love the boat and its equipment. Feel like the tackle and rods were better then average. I know these guys are more expensive but doing the math on a 6 hour trip we fished for over 4 hours and went out 40-42 miles. This is no slow moving fishing charter that goes 20 mph and takes 2 hours out and 2 hours in while burning valuable time. If your serious about fishing and concerned about fishing these are your guys. 2 of us Dads took our sons out and we all had a blast. They had great food and plenty of drinks on board.

We recommend Pelagic Color Fishing so highly. Absolutely incredible time. Five stars. The captain and his mates were friendly, knowledgeable and highly skilled. The team made sure we had everything we needed. And we reeled in (catch and release) a 200lb shark, had a visit from a friendly school of dolphins and caught enough large fish to fill a hot tub. Can’t wait to go out again.

I took some clients out today for a fishing trip with the Pelagic Color crew and a had a fantastic experience! Noah was great to work with setting up the trip. Communication was top notch. Ryan, Rina and captain “Hollywood” were great hosts. They were extremely knowledgeable and accommodating for our experienced and new anglers. We were on fish at 7:15am and didn’t hit a fishing hole that we didn’t pull up multiple fish. 10 of 10 and would absolutely do it again!

This whole team was amazing to deal with from start to finish! John, Marty and Reena were amazing! Noah was great too! The service, experience and overall feel of the entire day was exceptional; and we had fun catching fish! This crew was very attentive and made sure we always had everything we needed. They assisted us every step of the way. So happy to have booked with them! Totally worth it!
Side note: this boat is impressive. Top notch.

Everything from beginning to end was 1st class, from the Boat to the Crew, the service, the accommodations - the experience couldn't have been better. We had a good strategy from the get-go with going after snapper and grouper in the morning, filling the ice chests a bit then later trolling for Tuna and Wahoo.
They have the Captain with the good-hearted nature and keeping us all laughing, the rigger, setting up all the lines and baits, and the Steward keeping us full of good food and drink.
Getting out there was fast, that Yellowfin '42 can fly!

John, Adam, and Rina were great! They welcomed us aboard and helped us to have a great, successful fishing experience.
As a crew, they communicated with us very well. A storm system had passed the previous day, and the gulf was rough. The crew discussed their concerns for our safety and comfort, and asked for our consent before making any decisions on our trip. We caught a bunch of snappers and had a ton of fun!
If you are looking to go deep sea fishing, book with this charter company! They are awesome!!

From the time I booked the trip with Noah to the trip with Capt Marty and the mates Rudy and Raina……. Everything was done in first class. You can’t have a better trip! I fish every other wknd on my 32 Regulator, but these people were great and the fishing gears were first class. We had a fantastic time with the crew and we caught a “sick” number of fish. It is one of the best fishing charter we went on in our life time. Don’t wait and don’t let the price fool u! It is all inclusive with food, charter, fish cleaning and tip. It just doesn’t get better than this…! The quads on this 42 Yellowfin ain’t to shabby either 😆
