Captain Jemel is the absolute best! Took my 12 year old son and 2 of his friends for a b-day backwater charter and we all had an unforgettable time. Captain Jemel is patient, knowledgeable and did amazing with the boys! Even going to extra lengths to make sure 1 of them got to catch the only thing he wanted--a snook. If you're looking for a fun and relaxing day on the water, Black Irish Charters is definitely the way to go!!!

We went out on Black Irish Charters with Captain Jemel today and it was one of the greatest experiences of my life! He was a great guide, was very pleasant and put us on the fish! We caught snook, red fish, speckled trout, and much more. We will definitely be repeating this trip with Captain Jemel as soon as possible. Thanks Captain!

Best place on earth. Been visiting for over 17 years. Now I get to bring my kids. Can’t wait to get back there soon! It’s the “cheers” of bait shops.

MB@ T have the best bait in town. The men inside the bait shop are all local intelligent fishermen and always will help you out to tell you what’s the bay like recently. Been going to these guys for years if you want bait at a reasonable price or need anything from t-shirts to tackle this is your spot!!

MB&T is the place for bait, tackle and great local advice. The shop & charter guys Kyle, Jemel, Jimmy are all local watermen, know their stuff and are always willing to help - just ask! ALWAYS A HOT TOPIC - BAIT! Remember that bait changes all year long (white bait vs shrimp, chunk vs live, big vs small, etc) They will help you select the right bait from what's available for what you are trying to do and explain how to use it. These guys are the reel deal!

Bait shop was amazing with great customer service. The guys in the bait shop helped me and my son revise our techniques to catch the good fish. Love this bait store with the best prices. Always enjoy going to the best bait shop in Bonita springs with my son. I wish I could give 10 stars to this incredible bait shop.

Kyle was very helpful and gave me solid advice for a day of inshore fishing w/ artificial baits. Based on my experience, schedule, weather, etc. he helped me nail down exactly where I should go and what I should do. It ended up paying off - caught a snook and a couple of mangrove snapper. Thanks Kyle!
