Great captain, fun time on the water
Capt. Ozzy was faced with some unpredictable weather, including an early morning downpour, and still did what he could to get us out. We appreciated him bring flexible with start time as we waited out the storm, and trying out as many spots as he could to find the bite. Boat and tackle was all in good condition, and Capt Ozzy took care of it all-- my wife and kid didn't even have to cast out if they didn't want to. Most notably from a family stand point was his patience and personality while interacting with our kid. Made the day for her, even if the conditions meant a slower bite. Capt Ozzy was doing what he could to find us some tight lines, and that's all you can ask for. We would definitely go out with him again.
