Captain Bill was fantastic and got us on the fish in no time! He took us to prime spots where he knew we'd have the best chance at catching what we were after. He was knowledgeable, laid-back, and made the trip enjoyable for everyone. We had an amazing experience and highly recommend Captain Bill – we'll definitely be booking with him again on our next trip!

We had an awesome day with Captain Bill, despite the weather not being in our favor, which kept us inshore. He had us try various techniques, and we still managed to catch several different species. We're excited for our next trip and hoping for better weather next time!

This was our first time fishing in the Gulf, and Captain Bill exceeded expectations as our captain, guide, and entertainer. His expertise in both fishing and the local area was impressive. While we caught fish, none were keepers, but it was still a gorgeous day on the water. Despite the slow fishing, Captain Bill did a fantastic job. I also have to mention his boat was spotless—definitely a 10/10!

Captain Bill was friendly, helpful, and hardworking, and most importantly, he knew exactly where the fish were! He had us catching fish all day, kept the bait fresh, and made sure the conversation stayed lively. For half of our group, this was their first charter fishing experience, and they enjoyed it so much they’re already planning their next trip with Captain Bill! This was my third trip with him, and I highly recommend booking him if you’re in the area. He’s wonderful and truly knows his stuff. Thank you, Captain Bill—see you soon!

Captain Bill did an outstanding job with us. His deep knowledge of the area led us straight to a spot where we started catching fish right away. We consistently hooked fish from the first spot to the last. I highly recommend this charter to anyone seeking a great private fishing trip.

We had an awesome time with Bill. Despite the warm water temperatures, we managed to land a 30-pound Amberjack and a few snappers. It was definitely worth every penny!

My husband and I had an amazing time with Captain Bill Risher! We fished, laughed, joked, and fished some more. The weather was perfect, and Captain Bill knew exactly where to find the fish! I highly recommend him and his boat, and we’ll definitely be booking more trips with him. He’s personable, professional, and highly knowledgeable about the water and the fish. If you're looking for a fantastic experience and a great day, book a trip with Captain Bill—you won’t regret it. 🤍
