Great trip for my 11 year old son and myself. Once we got on the water the tackle, knowledge, and customer service were first class. Capt Rich and Paul let us chime in on decisions for the fishing plan to optimize chances of landing a big one with having fun. Highly recommend.

This was not our first rodeo with Rich & it certainly won’t be our last. From land to sea to land, we were taken care of to the umpteenth degree. Even in midday, we got put on fish. Now, THAT’S a legit guide.

Great day with Captain Rich and Paul the Mate. Both Did a nice job explaining about workings of the boat, head and gear before we left the dock. Boat is nicely outfitted for fishing in open water. Paul put out all the lines and we were on fish on no time. We caught a false albacore, barracuda, nice Mahi and a giant 56” Wahoo! A little rain didn’t spoil a great time. Highly recommend

April 23, 2025Fantastic day out on the water with Tuna Wahoo. Captain Rich and mate were wonderful. Worked hard to find the fish we were looking for. Expert guidance, safe environment, fun fishing and catching! We have enjoyed our trips with them for 8 years. Love these guys! Highly recommend!

April 19, 2025I cannot even begin to tell you what a wonderful time we had. Rich, thank you so much for your kindness and hospitality, and to Paul too! It meant so much to the kids, and to me! Not everyone would let kids on the boat or make them feel as good as you did.

Rich and his first mate Paul were a class act. Super professional and knowledgeable of both Pelagic species as well as inshore species. They put us into Kings, Mahi, Bonito and a few other species. We had a great time, highly recommend and definitely want to fish with Rich again.

July 14, 2024Captain Rich and Paulie did a fantastic job! I highly recommend using their services. We were even able to catch a 6-7 foot sailfish. It was a great adventure and I'll definitely book them again next time I'm in the area!
Captain Rich & his First Mate Paul are expert anglers! My father generously booked this private charter for me & my son during our visit to Florida. It was a spectacular experience. We caught many varieties of fish, dozens of them, continuously throughout the day culminating in a big fish fry when we got home. Rich & Paul took us to the best spots and ensured that we had a wonderful time. Their boat, the Tuna Wahoo, is the perfect fishing vessel. If you want to make great memories while on vacation and enjoy some deep sea fishing, I highly recommend TUNA WAHOO CHARTERS.

May 18, 2024Captain Rich was outstanding! My two teenage boys and I had an amazing time. After the trip, my boys asked if we could go again next year—with Captain Rich. He’s fantastic with kids! Having chartered many fishing boats throughout the North Atlantic Ocean, I can say this boat is exceptionally well-maintained and very clean. I wouldn’t hesitate to bring my wife next time. Overall, we had a great experience. Despite less-than-ideal conditions, we managed to catch about eight fish in four hours. Captain Rich really knows his stuff, and his first mate, Rick, was excellent as well. Highly recommended!

February 20, 2024Captain Rich and First Mate Dave were fantastic. They did everything possible to make the trip enjoyable for everyone. Although we didn't catch "the big one," each of us landed a fish or shark or two, keeping the day exciting. The captain explored different locations and baits to ensure our success. Our daughter-in-law caught a king mackerel, which Captain Rich filleted for us. He then took it to Rafiki Tiki, a restaurant on the dock, and introduced us to the owner and chef. We returned later for a delicious fish dinner. It was a wonderful and fun day from start to finish!
