Went on another half day charter with Capt. Mark Crawford and Hotfish Charters. We caught enough fish to feed a small army. Snook, reds and snapper. Never more than 5 minutes without a fish on the line. Every time I’ve been on his boat, Capt. Mark Crawford has delivered. Thank you Captain Mark and Hotfish Charters.

Great time. Put us on Tarpon first thing in the morning. We were 2 for 2.

Captain Mark was an outstanding guide he was very patient with us being new to this type of fishing. We booked two days back to back and both days were worth every penny. Mark took his time and put us on some of the best guided fishing I’ve ever had the pleasure of [experiencing]. At multiple times we were able to have double and triples on after a couple of hours the three of us were able to bring in at least thirty fish. We came down for my grandson’s tenth birthday and Mark made this an amazing birthday for him and his father and myself. Thank you very much Mark.

Capt. Mark is a highly dedicated, awesome Captain. I arrived in Florida during the height of a tropical storm earlier this week, got skunked, and tried again two days later. We had another rough start with storms and no bite. Captain Mark stuck it out all day, promised me a fish and delivered at 320 pm yesterday. Super stoked … Captain Mark has great tunes, great sense of humor, and is super patient. I’ll be back and calling him first!! Thanks buddy, you made my week!!!!

Captain Mark was awesome! Had an absolute blast today. We caught a 5 ft black tip shark and brought it up on the boat. Mark knows the waters and where to go! Would recommend anyone to do a trip with him!!!

We had a great day with captain Mark. With an off moon and tides, he still managed to track down the fish. Picked up good local knowledge and a few very helpful tips. Nice Dorado boat!

There’s no better tarpon guide in the business. I’m a repeat customer and plan to tarpon fish only with Mark every time I come to Florida. You will have fun, catch some fish, and talk some smack. Mark is your guy.

Awesome guy made it worth the trip I highly recommend a tarpon trip. He puts in the work and does all he can to put you on the fish. Thanks again.

Outstanding day on the water! I have fished several times with HotFish Charters (Mark Crawford) and always come home with a great catch. This guy knows what he’s doing and puts you on the fish. I have 2 young girls at home so my fishing time is limited. When I fish I hire the best and always call HotFish. I suggest you do the same!

Captain Mark was outstanding! Captain Mark Crawford was a true professional. He put us on some Monster Reds under some tough conditions. He is definitely the best guide that we have ever had. I strongly recommend seeking him out…

Great fishing! Had an amazing day out on the water with Captain Mark. The reels never stopped moving, fish after fish we were pullin them in. Awesome time!! Clearly knows what he’s doing, would highly recommend Hotfish charters to anyone looking to book a fishing trip. Never pulled that many snook in on a single trip 🙂

Three-quarter day charter with Captain Mark was great. I wanted a mixed bag inshore/backbay trip for Dad and I and he did not disappoint it was perfect. Sight fishing for redfish, snook, sea trout and cobia. I got the west coast slam (redfish, snook and sea trout) I was looking for. Captain Mark really worked hard and covered A LOT of area to find the fish we were looking for. Boat was great to fish off—very comfortable. Truly a great day and can’t wait to get back down there to fish with Captain Mark again!
