Family Adventure - so much fun
4 Hour Trip (AM) on June 27, 20262 adults3 children

my sister and myself, and my three nephews went out for an adventure and we sure had one. We took a chance on FishingBooker, and Captain Jeremy and Hunter were amazing and knocked it out of the park. The nephews range from 9 to 16 but have experienced Fishing and my sister and I have been around Fishing our entire life but never actually finished. It was such a great trip. All of us caught fish captain Jeremy navigated extremely well when we got caught in a bit of a storm. I would 100% recommend the two of them to anyone coming in from inexperienced to experience. we learned about all different fish that we’ve never seen before while we caught them and it was awesome for the kids to see the different species that are out there! Bonus, we enjoyed some fish that Captain Jeremy fillet for us and then we took home to cook so delicious!!

Spanish Mackerel
