I have been doing fishing charters for years and have had many good ones, let me tell you. But I was very impressed with Captain Will Shook. Not only was there the first impression of a gorgeous boat, clean environment, and top of the line tackle, but also the captain himself. Will is a genuine guy who loves fishing, and let me tell you, is darn good at it as well. Every spot we went to, Will put us on the fish. We hooked up with 7 tarpon over two days, and incredible number. The snook, redfish, and trout fishing is top of the line as well.

In a 4 hour trip, myself and 2 others caught 25 to 30 snook (released) with the largest well over 12 lbs. and an 8 pound personal best for me. Even more important, we had loads of fun! Will is a great guy who works hard for his charters and makes it easy to relax and enjoy. We have been fishing with Will each year for 5 or 6 years in different times of year and never had a bad experience. Looking forward to next year already. I recommend...
