Good Miami Sailfish captain?
 

Ok Ok, my Sonic is in the shop, and thousands of miles away so I can't fish from it like I usually do. Yep, believe it.

I want to take a Saturday morning Sailfish charter trip while attending the Miami boat show.

Any suggestions?

my girlfriends dad's captain is pretty good last time i was in FLA we hooked up on 4 on landed 3. And we were only out for a teh afternoon. I am pretty sure he only works private boats though.

Jimbo Thomas, Thomas Flyer

Bouncer Smith, Bouncers Dusky...

Thanks Scott B. Care to share any first hand experiences with these folks?

Oh yeah...the boat must be a convertible or sedan flybrige....no open boats or expresses.

Hey puder, what happened to your girlfriend's dad pilot?

I ended up with an $18,000 quote for a private jet to Miami and back for a bunch of boat show freaks. Now I am flying AA instead. <gg>

Hmm, those requirements rule out Bouncer. He is running a 33' Dusky out of South Beach Marina. Jimbo runs out of Bayside, close to boat show. Thomas Flyer a good boat, and Jimbo's reputation here is excellent. Consistently booked, so if you want to charter him, better call soon. I have his number @ my office, let me know if you need it.

I've never fished either of their boats, so no personal stories here. Born and raised here, we have always had a fishing boat around, so who needs to charter!
