Great experience! Travis and Chris were both easy to communicate with and quick with responses. They offered us options to best fit our family based on the weather and what we were hoping to get out of our day. We had such beautiful day thanks to their suggestion. It was full of fun and memories. Unfortunately we didnt catch endless fish like we had hoped BUT we definitely caught fish! Chris was a great captain. Super social and knowledgeable. You can tell he really love his job and time on the water. Our 8yr old son was given the opportunity to sit next to him while he drove and Chris taught him about the different instruments on the boat, how they work and what to look for in the fish finder. If we are ever back in this area again we will definitely be scheduling with again!
Thanks! you we appreciate the review. And look forward to seeing you again.
We had an outstanding experience on this charter fishing trip from start to finish. Captain Chris was knowledgeable, professional, and incredibly friendly, making everyone on board feel welcome and comfortable. The boat was clean, well-maintained, and fully equipped with quality gear. The captain worked hard to put us on the fish, and his expertise really showed throughout the day. Whether you were an experienced angler or a first-time fisherman, he was patient, helpful, and eager to share tips and techniques. We caught plenty of fish and had an amazing time on the water. What stood out most was the captain’s dedication to ensuring everyone had a great experience. The scenery, the fishing, and the overall atmosphere made for an unforgettable day. We highly recommend this charter to anyone looking for a fun, professional, and successful fishing adventure. We will definitely be booking another trip!
Thanks! very much appreciated!
Seasoned Captain & mate put us on the fish instantly. We fished up live bait and deployed them on big rockfish. All on board boated rockfish.The waters around Solomon's Island are beautiful and productive. Whether targeting rockfish, croaker, blues, spanish macs or weakfish, its all here. Book early and often
Thanks! it was our pleasure
We were celebrating my dad's (seventy something ) and my son's 18th birthday. Captain Chris was attentive, patient and so kind. He made it a point for each of us to get a catch (stripped bass). We had a great day fishing and made wonderful lasting memories. Would recommend to everyone.
we are glad to hear that you had a wonderful time
It was a fantastic day on the water with Captain Chris. He was very friendly, punctual, and accommodating. The spot was slow to bite today so this took away some of our time rockfishing. Overall, it was a fun filled day and I did catch a 21 inch rockfish…
thank you we’re glad you had a good time
