5.00Fishing trip was great. Captain and his mates took great care of us. Took our catch back to Pinchers in Marco Island and they cooked it up well. Look forward to our return in April to try it out again.

5.00Honestly a great time! Our captain had one curveball after another to get us on the fish and he delivered! The bite would die, and he knew it was time to switch spots. He saw what we were catching, and knew it was time to switch spots. Will 100% rebook here, they know where to bring you and don’t give up until you’re catching!
Outstanding fishing experience coupled with outstanding customer service.

5.00We have used Pure Florida on a number of occasions for both calm water and deep sea fishing. Time and time again, they have shown nothing but the utmost professionalism and patience for us beginner anglers. Special mention has to go out to Robyn and Chris for their time. We will be back for sure and cannot recommend Pure Florida highly enough.
Great morning of fishing

4.00Loved the fishing and almost everyone caught at least a grunt. I caught a mackerel that was a keeper! We had a fun time, but my son in law didn't catch anything. Other than that, lots of help from Cooper on the lines and from the Captain.
Captain Chris and First mate Braxton were amazing
