Captain Neal went above and beyond—I've never seen a charter captain put in so much effort. He really knows the local waters, and it showed throughout the trip. My grandson and I had a fantastic time on the water, and I’d gladly recommend fishing with him.

We booked our trip with less than two days' notice, and Captain Neal got in touch within the hour to confirm everything. From start to finish, the entire process was seamless. We wanted to target trout, and he brought us to the right spots—we managed to reel in a few! The kids had a blast, and the morning couldn’t have gone any better. Overall, it was a great experience.

We were on the fish right away and hit our limit early in the trip. Captain Neal was friendly, easy to talk to, and clearly knows his stuff. It was a great day on the water from start to finish.

Captain Neal really knows these waters and how to find the fish. The bite started off slow, but after a few moves, he had us reeling in some quality trout. He worked hard to make it happen, and I’d definitely fish with him again.

My 16-year-old son and I were visiting Florida from New York, and fishing with Captain Neal was a highlight of our trip. He went above and beyond, taking us to nearly a dozen spots to make sure we got on the fish. Throughout the charter, he shared great info about the area and patiently answered all of our questions. He even cast my line for me every time—truly top-notch service. It was an awesome experience, and I highly recommend him!

We went out with Captain Neal for a trip with our two boys, ages 11 and 4, and he was absolutely fantastic. He showed incredible patience with our chatty kids, happily answering every question they had—and ours too! He was hands-on the entire time, helping with bait, hooks, and landing fish. We caught plenty, including three keepers, and our 11-year-old said it was a day he'll always remember. We had such a fun, memorable time and even spotted manatees and dolphins along the way. The Indian River was beautiful, and we’re so thankful to Captain Neal for such a great experience!

We took our 6- and 8-year-old boys out fishing with Captain Neal, and it was an incredible experience from start to finish. He was patient, kind, and so helpful with the kids, making sure they were involved and having fun the whole time. They reeled in all kinds of fish—catfish, lots of pufferfish, a few trout, and even a blue crab! A manatee and dolphin swam right up to the boat, which made the day even more magical. Truly a core memory for our family. Huge thanks to Captain Neal for such an unforgettable trip!

I highly recommend fishing with Captain Neal. Having grown up in Oak Hill, he knows Mosquito Lagoon like the back of his hand. His local knowledge really shines through, and he's an absolute pleasure to spend the day with on the water.

The weather was perfect, and we were fishing in less than 10 minutes from leaving the dock. Captain Neil quickly located the fish for us, and we enjoyed swapping fish tales throughout the trip. After we finished fishing, he efficiently cleaned our catch. It was a great experience, and I highly recommend Captain Goodrich. P.S. We also had a fantastic lunch at the restaurant.
