Captain Leng took me and my 3 buddies out fishing, and it was an experience we will never forget ! We went out boys and came back men. We had zero experience, but Captain Leng walked us through everything and taught us with kindness and patience. He was so generous and nice. We caught fish, and when we came back he even gave us a couple lobster. Truly an amazing captain and person, had an incredible time highly recommend !
Our trip was cut a bit short due to me getting sea sick but the Captain did everything he could to try to make the expierence as enjoyable as possible, he was very knowledgeble, explained and demostrated how to use the equipment. We ended up catching four fishes and could have been more if it wasn’t because us feeling sick. I would defenitly reccomend choosing Karken Marine Sports Fishing for your upcoming fishing trip!
The charter operator canceled 4 days prior to the trip date. This is an automated posting.
