Brian was awesome and super easy to spend 5 hours with. Very communicative leading up to our trip with easy directions to get to the boat. He had water and snacks on board and we also brought sandwiches. It wasnt the best day for fishing but Brian was determined to find us some fish. He kept us entertained the whole time, and just being out on the water was great. In the last hour+ we found a ton of fish. We were also treated to a beautiful sunset. Overall great experience- we definitely recommend!
Thanks!!! Hope to see you again for better fishing!!!
We had a great time on this afternoon/ evening fishing trip with Brian. He is a top-notch professional and has a great boat and all the tackle you need for trolling or casting at various depths. Brian is also super friendly and was very communicative and informative throughout the trip. We caught some 30+ Spanish mackerels, rockfish and blue fish and kept some of the mackerels for dinner. Brian even helped cleaning the mackerels! We could not have thought of a better trip than this. Thank you, Brian!
Thanks Anatoly. It was great meeting you and your dad. I feel lucky to have shared in your adventure !
Captain Brian was an awesome guide. Striped Bass hitting left and right. Perfect afternoon. Highly recommend!
