Big Z Charters

Had a great time in the backwaters. On time had a huge smile and explained how to use equipment perfectly. Wonderful conversation, good fishing and even better company. The kids had a blast and then were blown away when the Island Gypsy prepared it for us to enjoy.

Capt. Bobby at Big Z Charters is, by far, THE BEST, Fishing Charter we have EVER used! Every time we go out, Bobby finds the fish. His boat is extremely clean and versatile. He can go offshore or backwater. Yesterday, for example, we went off shore and the wind kicked up just a bit. His boat is long enough and wide enough that we cut through the seas easily. Bobby is retired Coast Guard so you will never be safer on the water. What we like most about Bobby, yes he is a great fisherman, but he is an even greater person. We have used him in all kinds of situations with our friends, (good fishermen, new fishermen, outgoing people, quiet people) and Bobby adapts his approach so that everyone feels comfortable. Really remarkable experience. We recommend Big Z Charters in the biggest way!

We had a lot of fun fishing with Captain Bobby last Saturday. He had everything that we needed for our fishing trip. His communication about our trip reservation was always quick and informative. When we arrived to the marina, he was already there getting his boat ready for the trip. He was very attentive to our wishes and gave us options for our fishing experience. We chose to fish and keep our catch, for which he took us further from the shore. While fishing, he helped to set everything up, also helped the kids with getting the fish off. He was very friendly, easy-going and knowledgeable. We will definitely hire him again. This fishing trip was a lot of fun and created a great family memory for us and our children.
