We had an incredible night on the water with Captain Jamie. He made the trip fun, kept the energy high, and helped our boys land fish all evening. It’s an experience they’ll never forget—a memory that will last a lifetime.

The experience was amazing from start to finish. Captain Jamie was very patient, walked me through everything step by step, and even helped with bait so I could stay focused on catching fish. It made the entire evening relaxed, fun, and perfect for anyone who just wants to enjoy their time on the water without any stress. If you’re looking for a great fishing trip with a guide who truly helps you every step of the way, I highly recommend Addicted to Scales and Tails. Already looking forward to the next trip!

If you’re a local and enjoy bay fishing, you’re seriously missing out if you haven’t booked a trip with Captain Jamie at Addicted to Scales and Tails. Captain Jamie delivered a top-tier experience from start to finish, and every part of the charter was a 100 out of 100. He did an amazing job sharing the experience with my kids and making sure everyone felt included and had a great time on the water. We can’t wait to come back and do it again!

So much fun, highly recommend! Caught some big fish and learned a lot about fishing the area. It was windy the night we went out, but that boat still gave a smooth ride! Thanks Captain Jamie, we had a blast!

My sister has been going through a tough time recently. She came to visit and said all she wanted was a little fishing. After one conversation with the captain, I signed her up — and she had the best day! It was the first time I’d seen her truly smile in a long time. My sister will share her own thoughts, but I’m beyond thrilled I sent her on this charter. She is visually impaired, and I wasn’t sure if she would be able to participate — but the captain made it not only possible, but absolutely amazing. This man running the charter is phenomenal in every way. I will never look anywhere else for family or company outings that involve fishing. Thank you, Captain — more than you’ll ever know! ❤️

Trip - Catch the Morning Bite Before Everyone Else on October 1, 2025

Awesome trip! We were on fish from the first cast. Each of us caught a 30 inch plus redfish. Jaime was awesome with my kids. They loved it. You can tell he puts in the time scouting to stay on the fish. We will be back!

An Unforgettable Day on the Water with Captain Jamie! If you’re looking for a fishing charter that goes above and beyond, look no further than Jamie. From the moment we stepped on the boat, it was clear that he genuinely cares about his customers and wants them to have the best experience possible. He was not only incredibly knowledgeable about where to find the fish, but also super patient and helpful—especially with those of us who were new to fishing. He made sure everyone felt comfortable, kept the energy fun, and was just an all-around great guy to spend the day with. We caught plenty of fish, made unforgettable memories, and laughed a lot along the way. You can tell Jamie puts his heart into what he does, and that makes all the difference. I can’t recommend his charter enough—book it! You won’t regret it. 🎣💯

My first inshore fishing trip and I’m hooked! Had a blast catching Red’s and speckled trout. My dad’s already booking his next trip out with Capt. Jamie. Boat and everything needed was ready and waiting for us.

We did a night trip with our two kiddos (7 & 9), the trip was mainly for our 7 year old son and it did not disappoint! He said it was the best night of his life 😂 Captain Hoover was absolutely amazing, so good with the kids and so knowledgeable. We will definitely be booking another trip in the future.

Trip - Catch the Morning Bite Before Everyone Else on August 3, 2025

Me, my brother, my buddy, and his son booked a last minute trip. Best fishing trip I’ve been on. The weather was bad so we postponed start time once we got there, just some unforeseen storm that came out of no where. We hung out and talked until it passed by, you would think you have known him your whole life super friendly and easy going. His time didn’t start until we got to our fishing destination he put us on 4 big bulls just for the enjoyment of the fight and then like clock work filled our limit on keepers. Filleted and bagged everything in no time. Boat is nice, hard to find a smoother ride than his ranger. He had fresh bait when we got there and an assortment in case they were picky. Supplied water, and ice for our fish. Book here don’t let the budget pricing fool you, you won’t be disappointed.
