We had a great day on the water with Kay Kib! The captain and his crew were knowledgeable of the water and how to catch fish. They were accommodating and professional! Our day peaked when we landed an 85" sailfish after catching a handful of other fish along the way. The fresh ceviche made from our mahi was a big highlight!
we enjoyed the day ! the cmfresh ceviche was great !
Kay Kib and crew were awesome and very knowledgeable. One of the crew traded shirts with my son, very cool!
Fantastic fishing trip for 6 people. The crew was very helpful and made sure we had an amazing trip. Not on the advertised boat, but it still first 6 people comfortably.
Hard to find, better directions. we were not sure we were in right place. Captain was prompt and on time, all crew worked hard. overall a very good experience.
