Had to be the greatest fishing charter I’ve ever been on. Went out with the one and only Captain Cuda whose personality, knowledge of the area, and fishing expertise led to an incredible day on the water. From the moment we got on board PhatKat, his state of the art WorldCat I knew we were in good hands. The boat was beautiful with plenty of space for our group and it was basically like fishing on a yacht. Definitely will recommend Captain Cuda Charters to anyone and everyone and I’ll be back! Thanks for the incredible day Cuda!
Went on an incredible, full day offshore fishing charter with Captain Cuda on, “Phat Cat”, his 32’ World Cat! The vessel is in pristine condition, a very comfortable ride, completely dry and extremely capable for offshore excursions! Cuda is a Pinellas County local with extensive knowledge, experience and expertise of the Gulf fisheries. The trip was run flawlessly from start to finish with professional grade tackle, ample, diverse bait, coolers and fish boxes packed with ice, top of the line electronics and a Captain willing to change tactics with a vessel capable of covering a large area. From novices to serious anglers, I would highly recommend heading out on the water with Captain Cuda!
Awesome experience! Very professional & wasted no time getting us on fish!
Omg! I just went out last night on a dolphin sunset tour. What an amazing and incredible experience. Captain Cuda AKA Barrie, was very highly knowledgeable about the waters, we so many dolphins and it was so exciting seeing them right up behind the boat surfing! WOW!! I highly recommend Captain Cuda Charters when in Saint Pete/Tampa Bay Area.
Amazing fishing trip!!!! Captain Berry and Captain Toby couldn’t have been any more accommodating! Had a great day with wonderful people and hooking fish!
5 star for Cuda Charters, was great day TU Barri. appreciate all u did to make it memorable
Excellent captain! We had a great time!
Absolutely amazing experience from start to finish. This was a family day for us, and it couldn’t have been more perfect. The boat was gorgeous, fully equipped, and spotless — with coolers already filled with ice so we could jump right in and enjoy our time together. Captain Barrie was outstanding — professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly personable. He made everyone feel comfortable, took us on an unforgettable dolphin tour, and truly went above and beyond to make the day special. It was even better than we could have expected. One of the best days we’ve had on the water — we can’t wait to book again!
