My mother in law and myself went fishing with Brandon and Blake for a 4 hour trip and we had the time of our lives. It was the first time deep sea fishing for both of us and they made it unforgettable.

Captain Brandon was awesome! He knew exactly where to take us and we caught a ton of fish! And had so much fun at each location. Deck hand Blake was great as well! They were both super friendly and great with my kiddos. Boat is super clean, the AC cabin is a god-send. We had a great time catching vermilion snappers, trigger fish, and amber jacks. The 6 hour trip was perfect for the kids and us. We will definitely be using him again anytime we’re down here!

What are fun trip with Legendary New Beginnings!!! Captain Brandon put us on the fish and First Mate Blake worked his butt off all day to keep the fish rolling in! We had 4 boys with us and FM Blake kept it fun and included the boys in all the things! Captain Brandon kept us on the fish to make sure we caught our limits and kept on rolling! When we were moving FM Brandon was rigging for the next stop and cleaning the whole time! We recommend them 10/10!!

This was the first time we went out with Captain Brandon and it won’t be the last. We had a great time with New Beginnings, we caught a lot of fish. His first mate was the best he was a hard worker.

Captain Brandon and Blake couldn’t have been any more kind and helpful. It was a beautiful day for a six hour trip, we caught 45 lbs of fish. Great experience for all of us. Thank you so much for the memories, hope to do it again next year!

It was a real good trip. The captain and first mate put us on the fish and stayed until the bite slowed. In between fishing spots, we cooled off in the A/C cabin.The First mate was there giving us tips, and helping to keep us baited up and fishing, and helped to unhook the fish. We all liked this outfit a lot and intend to do a repeat soon.
