Cpt. Peter is a experienced professional, knowing the place and the weather very well. Decent equipment and lures, powerfull boat, not a yacht indeed, but enough for a funny fishing day with the family.

Morning fishing with the boys
5 Hour Trip – Inshore (AM) on August 24, 20223 adults

Peter and his crew mate 'Brother' were friendly, helpful and great company. One of my sons got sea sick as we got to open sea so I chose to head back. Peter made the best of it by taking us to as many fishing spots in the bay where the boy felt better. I would recommend the trip and we will be back again. We had a good time!
