Had a great time hunting bonefish with Johann. Really impressed with his ability to find fish and get them within range! What a fun fishery, can't wait to do it again!

I contacted Captain Jon Jon a few days before the booking date. He did everything he could to make it work for us. He's a great guy. I would recommend calling the number on the website rather than the "contact me" option or the email options.

Had such an awesome time out with Captain Jon Jon and Johann. They put me in front of many bonefish and I was lucky enough to bring one in. They continued to offer advice and knowledge to help me get one on the line! I will definitely be back for more
