Free to be listed

Direct connections
Anglers book with you, not through a middleman. Calls and messages go straight to your boat.
Vetted captains only
Every listing is reviewed. Only proven captains are included, not whoever pays the most.
Why TrustedFish exists
Most booking platforms take 20–30% out of every trip. That cut comes from the captain’s pocket and drives prices up for anglers. On top of that, those sites rank listings by who pays the most, not who runs the best trips. Even average charters can buy their way to the top while skilled captains get buried.
TrustedFish was built to fix what’s broken in charter fishing.
