In the afternoon they moved inshore and scored a monster Amberjack.

“Awesome charter operation- The boat was rock solid, captain and mate were very knowledgeable, and the gear was top notch,” wrote Matthew in his review. “The lunches served on the boat were fantastic. The captain wasn’t afraid to make long runs to find the fish. We tore up mahi, tuna and AJ’s. Epic 3 days of fishing on the Wanderer!”
