Best crew ever, Capt Will, and Mike and Mikey!! First time and I would do it everytime I visit if I would have this crew. The experience was completely unreal and so much fun!!! The crew was top-notch and would recommend requesting them. They went out of their way to make it fun and successful. Shoutout to the crew of Capt, Will, Mike and Mikey.

Super friendly and helpful crew even though I was sick the rest of the group was able to catch plenty of fish

John & Josh knew what they were doing. I was a first timer & the instructions were pretty clear. It was an overall great time & experience!!

Minor boat problems before we left and left late. Got on a different boat and smooth sailing after that. Since we left late we came back late. The captain was great and made sure we got what we paid for. The deck hands were fantastic and came around to help when we got a fish and gave tips. They cleaned the fish we caught, a little over 1 lb. We took it to Southport raw bar to finish with wonderful food. We all caught fish and enjoyed ourselves.

It was a lot of fun! Though we only caught a few small fishes, it was a wonderful experience! The crew were great

Kaleb, & John were the ABSOLUTE best Mates ever. The fish was biting, but not catching....The weather was perfect.
This crew was top tier, . All the things that people can control they did a perfect job

This was my very first ever visit to Ft Lauderdale Florida and The crew on Catch My Drift was nothing but very amazing and I look forward to coming back and visiting the crew again captain Gary, Mate John and Mate Kaylib I do apology I forgot the 3rd mates name and I would like to thank each and everyone working on that vessel and the knowledge and professionalism displayed to my group

Boat was great and caught quite a bit smaller fish. Fishing tour guides were great! Assisted with any question/need we had. Josh was fun!

People should know that this boat doesn't travel smoothly through the water. Even when anchored during fishing, the boat rocked back and forth. You will get very nauseated and possibly throw up. This was acknowledged by the staff as they told us where to vomit while on the ship. (into the ocean) Remember to take your own water and snacks - there is nothing available on board. Other than the nausea, this was a great adventure.

I cannot recommend this enough!!! We had captain Mike, Josh, and Kristina for our tour and they were fabulous. We had our two boys with us (age 6 and 10) and they were so good with them. This was our first time out fishing on the ocean and we loved it. We will absolutely be doing this again when we visit again!
Gregory_L, May 2026
It was okay but no fish it could have been a little longer and more people could have caught some fish but overall I still have a nice time
Cuprian_T, May 2026
Great experience, everyone was polite and friendly. Unique experience for me and my family. Everything was according with the plan.
Jennifer_G, May 2026
Friendly guides who helped with everything. We even got to feed the pelican who hung out on the boat.
Becki_T, Apr 2026
This experience was relaxing, exciting, and very well organized! Listen to the mate, crew members, and guides. Fish were caught left and right. It was a wonderful experience. AND THE FISH!! THEY WERE BIG!!!
Dan_L, Apr 2026
Although we didn't catch anything, we had a fun time out on the water. The crew were fun and engaged with us. The fish weren't bitting much but whenever someone caught something they would make sure everyone got to see it. They particularly made sure any kids on the ship got to help with reeling in a fish.
Pat_S, Apr 2026
Lots of fun for adults and kids. Crew was very accommodating and helpful. Would definitely do it another time.

The group charters don't cancel. If you're not good in rough water, be mindful of weather conditions. Also, you should consider booking a private charter so you can decide if you or your group wants to return to port.
Jessica_P, Mar 2026
Such a fun experience!! Full boat of 40 people, but a lot of us caught multiple fish. The crew was amazing!
Mirasol_H, Mar 2026
So much fun we did the night fishing it was amazing getting out of the hot weather and having a nice cool breeze and seeing the city at night time was also amazing
Peter_F, Mar 2026
We loved it so much that we went on the second trip of the day. Mikey and John were fantastic deck hands highly recommend it.
Tricia_M, Mar 2026
Friendly helpful crew! We loved the experience. We caught a good variety of fish. Would have preferred some monster sized but it was good fishing!! They knew the spots and set us up great!
Julie_I, Feb 2026
Wonderful experience! The crew was so accommodating, fun, friendly, and knowledgeable! John and Christina and are the best! Highly recommend 👍
Amy_T, Feb 2026
It was so much fun. The captain got us positioned over fish and the crew did everything to make us successful. They even brought different fish that others caught around so all could see how beautiful they were. The coolest was a rabbit pufferfish! I caught 3 fish and then after they cleaned them up and recommended a restaurant to go to have them cooked. They tasted amazing! 10/10 recommend. Only advice is to bring an old rag or some wet wipes with you if you don't want your hands smelling like squid all day as that is what they had us use for bait.
James_C, Feb 2026
Not much help teaching people what to do. There is only about 3 or 4 deckhands helping 60+ people. We are experienced, so no issue with us, but saw others struggling and was hard to find help when you needed it.

Great 4 hrs short ride to drift fish. We had a small group and calm weather so we were able to fish different depths, all spots we hit we caught fish. The crew explained how to use rods and reels and what to expect when the fish hit the line. Great day will take this charter again if I revisit Ft. Lauderdale
imo_w, Feb 2026
It’s an amazing experience I have intentions of returning to do another fishing trip with them as my family felt most comfortable and the experience for the kids was cool
Angela_M, Jan 2026
Great experience! We had a lot of fun and the captain, John, and Josh made sure to put us on some fish.
Amy_P, Jan 2026
Best day!!!! Took my 2 teenage boys for the morning fishing trip. We had the perfect day fishing!
Captain Mike along with his crew Christine & Josh were the best! They had us reeling them in all day 🎣🐠 Highly recommend Catch My Drift!
We ‘ll be back!!
Catherine_B, Jan 2026
Really enjoyed the experience. The trip itself offered marvelous views of the coast. The tour operator went to three different fishing areas to improve our success. We saw a ton of cool wildlife, and the operators were very helpful.
David_S, Jan 2026
The boat was way too crowded, so few passengers caught anything the whole day, and our lines kept getting tangled. This would have been far better if they had not over packed the boat.
The staff was great, and the on-shore staff was especially friendly.
