Great fishing trip!
Half Day Trip (AM) on July 31, 20266 adults

Captain Nick and his first mate put us on fish and we had 29 in the boat within 90 min. They communicated well before the trip and both were friendly, helpful, and patience during our time on the water. it helped that we had calm waters and a beautiful day. While this day will never be replicated, I would recommend this crew for your next fishing adventure.

Bluefish (Tailor)

Great day fishing on the Tara Ann! Captain and first mate were top notch. The Captain had us on the fish right away, multiple rods going off at the same time. Everyone had a blast, we will be back in the Tara Ann next year!
