Vinny, Nick, and JT were amazing! Vinny knew how to hook ‘em!!
Had a great experience, it rained on us alot in the afternoon but the crew stayed with it and we ended up catching more during and after the rain. We'll worth the trip.
I had an absolutely amazing charter trip with Capt Vinnie, and John! I had a night party boat charter get canceled last night and was scrambling to find a way to save the trip. I contacted Vinnie a day before hoping he would have an opening for today. Luckily he did and got me scheduled for a 6 hour morning trip the next day. We got out caught some fish on the troll and were having fun. Then we went to some reefs and caught limit on vermillion snapper, triggerfish, and our prize for the day on the water a 30+ pound amberjack! Couldn't recommend Capt Vinnie enough if you're in Dania beach, fort lauderdale area you have to give him a call!
What a great morning! They made it so easy for us - go where the fish are, get us set up and bam! We caught two tuna, two Bonita (which they can use for bait) and a king fish. So much fun to be on the water with our kids while on vacation. Booking was easy, directions clear, and we heard back quickly with a question we had beforehand. Thanks captain Vinny. What a great way to start my birthday.
Our experience with this tour was absolutely amazing. We caught well over a dozen. Picture only includes those that will be used. Also, the tour guides were very friendly and helpful when it came to catching but also made it independent for us in an easy way. We’ve been on other fishing trips and this was by far the best.
YB Normal fishing charter, with Captain Vinnie at the wheel is a trip of a lifetime. The experience was beyond anything we expected, Captain and mate had such expertise and knowledge of their craft that it was an art. YB Normal 8hr charter is definitely highly recommended if you want great big catch!!!. Captain Vinnie knew exactly where the fish are and how to get them on the boat!!!. Thank you dearly from the surfing chef.
This was our first family fishing experience and we had a blast! The Captian and his counterpart were super nice and we even caught a good amount of fish in 3 hrs! Highly recommend and will def be coming back! Thank you Vinnie!
Great fishing trip! We had so much fun out on the boat. We caught some King mackerel, barracuda and Bonita. Definitely recommend their business.
We fished with Captain Vinnie yesterday. It was my third trip with him. Each one is better than the one before it. We loaded up the coolers with quality fish, tuna, yellowtail and mutton snappers, kingfish and more. The boat is perfect- it is awesome to have an air conditioned cabin in the South Florida heat. But most importantly, Captain Vinnie puts you on the fish. Every time!!!!
Captain Vinny provided an exceptional service to our party of five. We caught King Fish, Mahi Mahi, Bonita and even a Barracuda. I recommend his company to any avid fisherman or anyone interested in learning. Vinny is definitely a true professional who caters a quality fishing experience.
Fishing with Captain Vinnie and Steve was a pleasure. Very laidback trip with fishing action about every 15 minutes. The four hour trip went by quickly as good fishing and conversations filled the morning. One of the best interactive fishing trips I’ve ever had.
We did the 6 hour afternoon trip with Vinnie and 1st mate Fischer and had a fantastic time. Everything was ready when we arrived. We made it out to the starting place, which took around 35-45 minutes. We started with Kites and some live bait that was given free to Vinnie, so we didn’t get charged for it, which was nice. We started hooking into fish starting with Bonita and then we caught an absolute hog of a barracuda, which they estimated around 35 pounds and a rarity for the large size. After that, I hooked into a hammerhead and was given the option to chase it, so we did for a solid 30 minutes until the hook popped out. But what an experience on light tackle. We did some more kite fishing and then trolled after the live bait ran out. We started hooking into fish quickly and after an absolutely chaotic set, came away with a Sailfish, Blackfin, King Mackerel and two jacks for good measure. Vinnie got us on fish and Fisher was a moving tornado, keeping all the gear in line and in the water fishing. We made our way back and got into port right at 6 hours. We had our fish cleaned and got some great pictures and memories along the way. I picked this boat, based on the reviews of others on Fishing Booker, but also because of the results of the captain. Not all days are going to be productive on the water, but I felt like we crushed it.
Well we had a great trip with these guys fishing wasn’t the best but Logan the deck hand made it a great experience they tried really hard to get the bit on very good guys to fish with thank u again we got a kingfish out of the deal can’t wait to try it
