Captain T J was outstanding! We caught 7 different species including trout and snook plus a shark. We had a couple of novice fishermen and TJ was very patient with them. 5 stars!
Thanks Dan. I really enjoyed having ya'll aboard.
TJ made this very easy for first times who have no idea what to do. When the trip is booked he sends you a few short info videos. TJ contacted us the day before our trip ready for any questions we had. As you get to the pier he text you direction to where he is. There were 5 of us ranging from 12 years old to 65 years. Everyone had a wonderful time. TJ took us several difference great areas to fish, he filleted all the fish we caught and put them in a bag of ice for the trip home. When we got home all we had to do was a little seasoning and throw them on the grill.
It was a pleasure having ya'll aboard. And congrats to Hallie on her first fish ever!
TJ was a very prompt and on-time person. He is very professional and took us to three different locations to fish. In each different area, he told us about all of the fish we may catch in that particular spot. He was exceptionally great at rapidly re-baiting our hooks after we caught fish one after another at one of our fishing holes. TJ was exceptionally great at teaching us different fishing techniques and talking to us about the different baits that we were using and why each one worked well for the particular species of fish that we were going after. He ended the trip with filleting our fish and making it ready to cook up for dinner! We highly recommend TJ if you want to enjoy a day fishing out on the water.
Thank you Bob.
We had a blast and a sightseeing was beautiful
Thanks TJ for a great afternoon on the water. He's good with the kids, and found us some fish. We all had a good time!
Thanks for a great afternoon. Enjoyed every minute.
