Testimonials

"I have fished several times with Capt. Benny in the Everglades and in the open waters of the Atlantic. My two sons and I are avid fishermen and had never been to the back country. The three times we’ve gone with Capt. Benny were great experiences. We caught Tarpon, Red Fish, Snook, Shark, Grouper and lots of Trout. For anybody who likes variety of fish this is the place to go. Capt. Benny is always looking for new spots and making sure that we all catch fish. The Everglades experience is something special. It is a surreal place and has beautiful wildlife. I would recommend the back country fishing experience to anyone. You must try it at least once in your life.
P.S. The big Tarpon in the “Photo Gallery” was mine."

"I have fished with Capt Benny on several occasions, varying from family outing to fishing with die-hard fishing buddies. One thing was constant on all the trips, Capt Benny is dead set on catching big fish!! Not just lots of fish, but big fish! On several outings we have fished secluded, tucked away and un-reachable spots just to be able to cast at large shadows - which most of us would think were logs, until we cast at it and the log moves. Fishing with Capt Benny is a bit like that McDonald’s commercial of a few years back with Michael Jordan and Larry Bird, “off the roof, thru the window...nothing but net”. Except that with Capt Benny, it would play out more like, “thru the shallow flats, down the creek, cast across the oyster bar...nothing but "big red!!!” and the bottom line is you have a fat red at your end of the line. And that is what Capt Benny strives for!"

"On more than one occasion he has salvaged what should have been a terrible outing into a phenomenal trip. Recently, he turned a frosty cold day at Flamingo into a SLAM for me. We caught trout, then moved on to one of his many favorite holes. I landed a large Snook (something no one expected in that freezing cold). Capt Benny instantly looked at us and said, "we have no option but to try for a slam" and off we were once again into the deepest parts of the Everglades in search of the slam."

"As such as I enjoy catching fish with Capt Benny... the things I enjoy most about him are his love for the Everglades , respect for the water, and the knowledge he is willing to share. I've learned so much since fishing with him. He does not hesitate in answering the dumbest of questions... my wife will attest to that!"

"You can't go wrong.... you'll never go wrong in chartering Capt Benny."

"I have been fishing with Capt. Benny for over 5 years now. My first real taste of the wonderful and mesmerizing Everglades National Park was with Capt. Benny. I had only fished there once, years ago with my childhood fishing partner Victor. Every time I go out with Capt. Benny I learn something new and the fishing is always tremendous. I have tried to duplicate what he does on my own and the results are never the same. His knowledge of the area, the way he reads the water flow and studies the tides not to mention his vast knowledge on what bait to use where (live or artificial) is surpassed by none. I have two boys, 8 and 4. There taste of fishing has all been in the backcountry with Benny. They have managed to already have snook, redfish, trout, ladyfish, snapper and shark in their photo albums all thanks to Capt. Benny."

"This weekend I had the privileged of fishing with him and Victor. The weather was terrible the few days before. We discussed the night before postponing the trip but all decided to tough it out and head down to paradise. We managed to boat 7 snook (all in the 26-32" range, 2 redfish, 3 trout, jacks, mangrove snapper, goliath grouper and yes....A sail catfish... Victor and I both had a backcountry SLAM."

"Thanks Capt. Benny for always going the extra mile to ensure that the fishing experienced is always top notch. Look forward to many more slams in the future."
