Conditions were a little rough but Captain Dan and Ricky still made it happen. They kept moving until we found fish and helped everyone get the hang of what to do. Really good crew.

My son and I had a great day fishing with Mike. He knew exactly where to go and handled the boat and gear like a pro. Really relaxed trip and we caught fish too. Would book again.

I was only in town for a short time and really wanted to fish. Captain Dan actually waited for us when we were trying to find a boat last minute. Turned into an amazing trip and we caught plenty. I’ll definitely be back next time.

This trip meant a lot for my son. I was a little nervous because he has autism, but Captain Dan immediately made us feel comfortable. He made sure my son had a great time and the photos we got are priceless memories.

Kai and John took us out for my brother’s bachelor party. A few of the guys got seasick but honestly we still had an awesome time. They had us on fish the whole trip. My arm was actually sore the next day from fighting fish.

Captain Dan and John gave us a really great trip. They put us on snapper and even showed us how to deep drop the right way. Plenty of laughs along the way too. Just a really fun time on the water.

Captain Dan is the kind of guy that doesn’t just put you on fish, he actually teaches you stuff while you’re out there. I’ve fished in Florida for years and still learned from him. That says a lot.

Bulldog is doing it right. Good people, good value, and a well-run operation. If Captain Dan has an opening, grab it.

Such a fun first half-day fishing trip. We caught a bunch of fish, saw big sea turtles, my husband caught a shark, and we even got to see another huge shark up close. Weather was perfect too. Couldn’t have asked for a better first trip.

This was our first trip with Bulldog and they were great. We’ve done charters in West Palm before and this one was the best. Rods stayed baited, we stayed on fish, and the crew worked hard the whole time.

Awesome trip with Bulldog. Every spot Captain Dan put us on had fish. First mate John stayed busy keeping everyone ready to go. Plenty of keepers and plenty more released. Really good day.

Good young crew and plenty of room on the boat. We had a full group and still fished comfortably. Weather wasn’t pretty but they stayed positive and kept us on yellowtails. No wasted time.

Best fishing charter around. Captain Dan really puts in the effort and wants people to catch fish, not just ride around. If you’re thinking about booking, do it.

Best charter I’ve done. The location is perfect because you don’t waste half your trip running forever to the fishing grounds. Captain Kiko was great, patient, easy to talk to, and clearly knows what he’s doing.

This was my first charter fishing trip and it was amazing. John and Kai were both great instructors and showed me how to do everything. I ended up catching several fish and even brought home fillets. Definitely the first of many trips for me.

We had a fantastic morning fishing with Captain Kai. Everyone in our group caught fish and had a lot of fun. Kai was attentive and offered helpful guidance throughout the trip. We ended up with plenty of fish to bring to a local restaurant for dinner. Highly recommend.

Captain Kai took us out and located fish quickly. He also shared helpful tips that improved our technique throughout the trip. We had such a good time that we came back the next day.
On our second outing we fished with Captain John and had another excellent experience. We caught several different species and everyone went home with fish and great memories. Highly recommend Bulldog Charters.
