FishingBookerReviews of fishingbooker.com

As a Charter Guide (Operationtek) who uses Fishingbooker To generate business I could not be happier with the service! The ease of use of their site and application is 2nd to none. Any questions which hardly ever arise are answered promptly and professionally. The customers that I have the pleasure of taking out and fishing are always extremely courteous polite and professional. Without fishingBooker I don't know ID able to operate and guide in the manner that I do. Honestly can't say enough good things about this service if you haven't gave it a shot please take a look!

We had a fantastic fishing half day with Captain Cody! Explored the Little Manatee River where I caught my first Tarpon! Highly Recommend

Outstanding trip. They took very good care of us! I was very please with everything. I highly recommend them!

On June 28th the captain sent me a text just before 6am telling me he had bad gas and needed to have his boat towed in. I called him and said we were already on our way and would see him at the dock. He sent an immediate text after contradicting himself by saying he was on the way to the mechanic. Gave him the benefit of the doubt when he rescheduled us for later in the week. The morning of the second trip (Friday July 2nd) he sent a text saying he'd been hit by a drunk drive and cancelled a second time. He cancelled the reservation on his end and I received an email from FB on July 2nd at 5:25 AM saying my booking had been cancelled. FB is saying it was an informal cancellation between us but that's simply not true considering I got an email from FB about the cancelleation on 7/2. Thought about it for a few weeks after the trip and then responded to the request from FB for a review. Wrote a long review detailing everything that happened. It went through their verification process and then posted to the site. Not long after the captain wrote his response to the review upset that I'd called him out. A few days later the review is taken down and when I reached out to FB to ask about it they said since the trip didn't happen I couldn't leave a review. Contradicted themselves a few times in the response and in general didn't seem to know their own policies or timelines. Regardless, on their website it says if the captain cancels there will be a notification on their reviews so that prospective customers will know it's happened. When I asked about this policy they stopped responding to me and to date, there is no such mark against the captain. In response to their reply below, I find it VERY hard to believe that the boat got bad gas the morning of the first trip and was hit by a drunk driver the morning of the second trip. I think it's much more likely that the captain was offered more money to take out a different group and made up excuses to cancel. The fact is that FB doesn't hold their captains accountable to the services they've agreed to and doesn't even follow their own rules and guidelines.

Ordered a Radar Dome Plate and it was to small for the Ray marine Doppler unit that had 14" bolt pattern . call to see if i could order a 15"x15" plate. girl told me she would the the big guy and never got a reply.

Great time on the water and we caught fish in each spot we tried. Captain was very knowledgeable and friendly.

Overall your site was a good experience. However, I am frustrated in a big way that I can’t figure out how to review the guide who cancelled in me the day of. I put a lot of effort into coordinating the outing with 5 generations of family members - our family is spread all over the US so we rarely are all together. The Captain canceled and I’m looking at his reviews now I see he cancels on people on a regular basis. I want to review him and can’t. Was able to go out a week later with another guide but only 2 of us got to go.

Great job on finding us a fishing trip!
