Awesome day swordfishing!!! Fished with captain Mike varney and first mate Lee on Tuesday Oct 22 on nicks 42 freeman “Broadminded”! Specifically targeted swordfish and what an epic day!! Despite the rough seas we were able to land 2 and release one. Captain and first mate worked well together to give us a great experience and memorable day! Will definitely re book and highly recommend!!

Fishing Fun Day We always have a blast with the crew on this charter!! We would always love to catch more fish when we’re out there, but we caught a lot of porgies, some snapper and a hogfish that we couldn’t keep because it wasn’t in season, but it was a lot of fun to catch. Ray was great, as well as the captain when it came to, taking the fish off our hook and keeping track of them. This is something we plan on doing every time we come down! Lots of fun!!
