    Half Day Trip with Captain Matt

    4 Hour Trip (AM) on March 28, 2023 • 3 adults

    Was expecting possibly rain this morning, a text message this morning from Captain Matt assured us we would be ok. Met him at 7:00 and out on the water by 7:10. A little bottom fishing, little trolling action and also a little dolphin show on the way out. Catch of the day, some Black Bass, Sheepshead, Pin Fish. Captain Matt ran a great boat and we enjoyed the trip.
