We spent two days fishing with Captain Chris. Our first day was deep sea fishing and we had an... read more
Captain Chris took us on a bayside tour. We had 2 guys who always get seasick and had no problem (as Chris told us they wouldn't). He found us a spot where you could literally see tons of tasty mangrove snapper fighting over our bait. We caught at least 10 large snook, but sadly had to throw them back because out of season. We caught and released many jacks, sharks and tarpon - all very fun fighting fish. He kept everyone fishing the whole time by fixing the hooks that we threw into the mangroves, baiting the lines and rotating multiple extra rods. I recommend the whole day so you can get to the best spots that are a bit further away from the typical local fishing holes. Overall a fantastic experience.
We had a terrific day fishing with Capt Chris! We caught about 40 to 50 Sea Trout and Snapper in the short 3 hour charter. Thank you Chris for a wonderful day!
We had a blast on this trip. Captain Chris was great. He took us to a great spot and caught a lot of fish. He even work really well with my daughter, this was her second time fishing. He had a lot of patient and showed her how to handle the rod. He let her hold the fish if she wanted to and answered all her questions, and she had a lot. He filleted the fish and the restaurant next door prepared it wonderfully. It was a wonderful trip and I would recommend him to anyone that is looking for a great fishing experience.
Every trip we take we always ask, "what was the best part of the trip?" Once again, it was fishing with Capt. Chris Hanson, Scales 2 Tales, next to Sundowners restaurant.
Great times, great fishing and no better charter captain!
Our only regret is we didn't fish another day with Capt. Chris on our vacay to Florida!! His guided trip was the absolute BEST I've ever been on (and I've been on quite a few)!! He knows where the fish are and his knowledge of how to catch them was amazing! We will come back to Florida just to go fishing with him again!!! Thank you Captain Chris!!
Took our 3 teenaged daughters. Chris was extremely knowledgeable and patient but quick to take fish off, bait hooks, and offer advice on how to catch:) He held up fish so that we could all take pictures with them. We started out the day learning how he catches bait. We had questions and he had answers! Fun trip out to his honey hole and about 5 seconds after casting, we started catching! We didn't even have to switch spots. We limited out on our snapper and caught and released a lot of other fish too. Our goal was to CATCH fish and Capt Chris succeeded! He was very professional as he measured fish to make sure we were legal. He did not fudge AT ALL (if a fish was 1/2" too short, we threw it back). Easy to talk to, fun to joke with, and made it an awesome experience for all of us. Great guy, great captain, and great music on the boat:)
