The weather didn't cooperate and cut our trip short but not before we had a 44-in cobia and three Spanish mackerel in the box. The captain and the mate were awesome, great communicators, and went out of their way to make sure my boys had a great time. It was a complete and total success because the birthday boy really wanted to catch a Cobia and we checked that box early. the captain offered to take us out again for a morning to make up for the missed afternoon due to the weather, so I could not be more satisfied with the level of service. I highly recommend Backdraft Sportfishing.
Thanks so much Louis , im glad the the two shorter trips were both successful and you were able to work with me and the weather . hope to see you and tbe family again next year !
Great trip with my brother, who came down from Michigan to fish the Bay, and my daughter! Exceeded my expectations. Dalton and Wes went above and beyond to make sure we got on the Cobia. Lifelong memory for us.
Captain Devin and mate Chase were great! they put in the effort to get us on fish and our whole crew had an amazing half day on the water. our group ages ranged from 9 to 73 years old and we all had lots of fun catching spanish mackerel and a big cobia!
Highly recommend Caught cobia
Captain Devin was very knowledgeable and accommodating to make the most of our half day on the water.
Thanks Dan it was a pleasure. hope to have you and your wife back out for a full day flounder/cobia trip.
