A lot of options in 1 place!
June 11, 2026

I like the ability to review each of the captains and all of their passengers opinions. I have had 3 trips and all have been positive. Cesar and Cesar Jr have been excellent at putting me on the fish that I requested to have them fish for. Roosters, Jacks and mahi mahi. The price is fair.

Finally fixed
June 5, 2026

This was my 2nd request to remove an unpublished duplicate listing. The first person did not help. But then I got Louise. She is totally awesome. She deleted the unpublished duplicate listing for me. The first person I got wouldn't delete it. He just said it has to be published then I could delete it which is absurd.

Great People!
May 24, 2026

We have used FishingBooker for a few years now and have always had really great experiences. The boat captains are always really cool, and we have always caught fish. On one occasion I accidentally booked the wrong trip and without any hesitation they were able to cancel the trip, re-book the correct trip, and refunded my deposit for the first trip. We highly recommend FishingBooker.

Good time in the Florida Keys
May 22, 2026

Our experiences with Fishing Booker and our guide, Jon Paul, were all exceptional. The ap provides easy access to needed information, receipt info, as well as easy communication with the captain. Jon Paul was on time, friendly, and efficient. He listened to what we wanted from our day on the water, and he delivered. We caught fish all day long in the backcountry. Excellent experience and we are looking forward to going again.

I've used Fishing Booker twice now to book in shore fishing trips when I've gone to Florida over the past 2 years. The website and app are easy to use: pit in your trip parameters and dozens of guides are available to choose from. Lots of pictures and testimonials.
Good follow up communication once you book with payment expectations transparently provided.
I will continue to use Fishing Booker!

8 wonderful hrs of fishing!
May 4, 2026

Boat was immaculate and captain was very knowledgeable, patient, and helped us to achieve both inshore and salt water fishing experience. Brennan was truly exceptional … Brennans nickname should be "speedy gonzalez " he provides top notch care. Ensuring bait, hook, and line is constantly ready to GO

Once in a lifetime experience
May 3, 2026

Don and Michi made it possible that three Swiss boyz had a fantastic and incredibly successful day fishing for big tuna. We were not only impressed with the beauty and excitement of the fishing itself but also with the passion, joy and dedication the hosts acted throughout the day.
We can only recommend those two entrepreneurs.
The booking itself was easy and the trip was shifted to the best possible day during the available week by the captain himself.
Thanks for this unforgettable experience

Absolute best fishing trip, ever. We went to fish. All we did was catch. Snook, Spotted Trout, Flounder, lady fish, & a shark. A Dolphin even fished all around us! Best fishing trip anyone could ask for.
Doing it again next year! Highly recommended. Thanks Captain Brook!

Customer complaining about trip
April 23, 2026

Your representative gave me the captain a call and spoke with me about one of our previous Charters the person was complaining I know that the booker representative was between a rock and a hard place trying to take care of the charter company and the customer. The customer seem to be not telling the truth and we were able to prove that and the representative is the one that was having a hard time but he is working his butt off trying to make this work and I do appreciate that need more people out there like him thanks so much
