6 Hour Trip – Offshore Near Coastal on April 21, 2025

Boat was ready to depart promptly. On the ride to the fishing grounds we took in the calm morning and the sights. Once we arrived at the fishing site we promptly had fish on our lines and began loading fish on the boat. Had few fish that we could not keep. Spotted a leatherback turtle and a huge shark while we were out. When returning the fish were cleaned up for us and the captain was quick and thorough at cutting them into filets. Marina staff were helpful and friendly as well. A short ride from there had us at a restaurant that cooked our fish for us. Terrific experience aside from possibly having a bit too much fish to eat for dinner... 😂
