My Grandson, 14, and I had a great time with Captain Pete. Communication was great and the directions to the boat ramp were easy to follow. We drove two hours to meet at the dock and capt Pete was already there waiting for us. We took a nice leisurely cruise on the inter coastal water way to the gulf. On the way out, we saw a Manatee. Capt Pete motored a little closer so my grandson could see it. Then we headed out to our fishing spot. We cruised out about eight miles and capt Pete put us right on top of the fish. My grandson lowered his bait to the bottom and immediately caught a snapper! I don’t know who was more excited, my grandson, me or Capt Pete! While he was reeling the fish in, Capt Pete gave him some pointers on how to make the catch easier. He was very patient with him. After catching about 30 fish at that spot, it slowed down a little, so we moved to another spot to pick up where we left off. This is where I have to say, my grandson caught more fish than I did! Near the end of our charter, we took the one “blue runner” I caught and tried to catch a barracuda from over an artificial reef. Unfortunately, that didn’t happen, so we agreed we would have to come back another time. As we were going back through the inter coastal water way, we had a dolphin follow us in. We had a great day and highly recommend Capt Pete to anyone looking for a fun fishing charter. Thanks Capt Pete for a great time!

We have gone out with Captain Pete the last few years and always come home with several meals of fish! He knows where to go and doesn’t waste time on spots that aren’t hitting. He is knowledgeable about the types of fish, and shares his knowledge throughout the trip. Always a great time!

Had an awesome experience with Captain Pete, ride out into ocean was about 30 minutes and when we got settled we were catching fish after fish. Probably 200 total for the group of us 4. Took 37 home and since he fillets them it makes it easier to enjoy the fish. Great experience and definitely worth it.

We had a wonderful charter with Captain Pete! He always finds the fish and keeps you reeling the fish in. Best of all, he fillets them and all you need to do is invite your friends over for a fish fry! If you’re looking for a fun day on the water, you won’t regret choosing Playin’ Hookey Fishing Chaters!

Captain Pete was amazing. He found a great spot. We had fish one after the other. He interacted with my grandson and made his day with his Shark catch and hauling in Groupers. Highly recommend Playing hooky and Captain Pete.

Had a five hour trip on 12/7 and were pulling up fish the whole time. Our group figured we caught 12 different species. Thanks Cap’n Pete

We had an awesome day with Cpt. Pete 'Playin Hookey'.  We took our 10 y.o. out for his birthday and brought along his 4 y.o. brother.  The boys had a blast, we were on fish the entire trip!  Would highly recommend for young families wanting to see a lot of fish and different varieties - plenty of Snapper, Grunts, Grouper, and even a Shark!

My wife and I came down to Florida for a vacation and wanted to do a fishing charter. I have done multiple charters in the past in places such as Alaska and lake Michigan. Pete is by far the best charter captain I've had. He knows his stuff and he knows where to find the fish. We caught a nice variety of species Such as mangrove snapper, yellow tail snapper, red grouper, porgy, croaker, trigger fish, and many more. Pete went above and beyond to make it a great experience. Next time I'm in Sarasota I will definitely be coming back to Pete for another fishing charter trip!
