Sean Schenker5.0VerifiedTHE BEST
3 hr back bay fishing on August 15, 2024 • 4 adultsSetting out with Captain Stephan, someone who has fished these waters since 1978, we knew we were in great hands. Flexible, kind, fun and humorous in his approach, this trip was excellent on every level. Captain Stephan gave us history, equipment, bait and worked as captain and mate! And it was no easy task, as between the 4 of us (my wife & 2 teen children), we pulled in 71 fish in a 3-hour span! It was an exciting and action-packed AM but never felt rushed, pressured or frantic. The ease of the bay along with the best captain in the area, it was a memory we will never forget. Hoping to get back to the area this Fall to hit some stripers with Captain Stephan again. Don’t hesitate-book a trip with him. You won’t regret it at all! Can’t wait to do it again.
