Capt. David with Overkill Adventures was great! We booked a 6hr offshore Reefs and Wrecks trip for our 11 yr old son’s Christmas gift. David got us safely out on the water thru some dense fog but once we got to the gulf, the weather was perfect. 72 degrees and sunny in late December was quite a gift and the fishing was incredible. We caught our limit on Mingo snapper, all of which were larger than normal. Then came the real treat....ENORMOUS red snapper! An 11 yr old boy could not have been more excited to catch a 25lb red snapper and David did great helping him. Thanks Capt David for an awesome Christmas fishing trip!

I've been on plenty of fishing charters and this was by far the best charter l've ever been on. David kept us on the fish and kept our lines baited. We were catching so many fish at one point that I have no idea how he kept up with us!! We ended up bringing in tons of Vermillion Snapper, Bonita and even a couple Barracuda!! And he has a beautiful and very comfortable boat. We had the best time!! Hope to come back down and do it again!

A must do when in the Pensacola area! Mike was our guide and he worked his butt off to get us on fish. He was personable and so helpful. Our family had a wonderful time and everyone caught a number of different fish. We love seeing the dolphins and sea turtles while trolling. We will be back to the area in the future and we will happily book with Overkill Adventures.

Think of your ideal FL offshore fishing trip...now go book it with Overkill!!! Super easy to book on the site and quick response from the booking service. Captain David was knowledgable, willing to share said knowledge, easy going and fun. Everything was explained clearly, the gear was great and the boat is incredible, you can tell David and his other guides take a lot of pride in the fleet and it shows. We were on fish within minutes of trolling and hooked up at every spot we stopped during the day. Truly an awesome experience start to finish, thank you Capt David!!!

Fantastic Experience! We had an awesome day on the water thanks to Shaun! As boating novices, we really appreciated how simple he made everything. He walked us through the basics clearly and made sure we felt safe and confident. Shaun launched the tritoon for us, and from there, we had an absolute blast. At the end of the day, we just pulled up to the pier, hopped out, and Shaun handled the rest. It couldn’t have been easier. This will definitely be part of our annual Florida tradition. Thanks again, Shaun!
