Thank you so much for making our kids first time out fishing on the ocean very memorable. They caught a variety of different types of fish and had so much fun doing it. The captain made sure to put us in spots that had schools of fish to make the experience exciting for the kids. They learned techniques for fishing out on the ocean which was a bit different then the fresh water fishing they have previously done. Thank you so much!
We had an amazing trip with Ira & Erica, who were super knowledgable & also great company. Their 3-hr trip is perfect for families with younger kids looking to fish together, but don’t have a ton of experience. we caught a huge variety of fish and even hooked a shark!! Thank you again for giving everyone auch an amazing experience Ira & Erica!
I took my 12 year old son and his friend out for a 4 hour trip. We hooked up with several species of fish including Pollock, Cod, Sculpin and a 40'' Striper. Captain Ira knew every spot and had great gear, was on time and made the whole experience a great time for the boys and myself. We also caught a ton of Mackerel which we used at bait. The weather was also ideal which made the whole experience even better. A great combination of experience, knowledge and of course landing fish made it a wonderful trip.
I booked a half day surprise birthday, father's day, anniversary trip for my husband, and in his words, "It was one of the best surprise gifts ever!" Hospitality and knowledge of the salt water fishing around Cape Ann was amazing! F/V Annie M was clean, comfortable and well maintained. Captain Ira and Erica let us be completely involved throughout the whole day. We caught all the bait fish, mackerel, whiting, etc. to use for the shark and tuna fishing. My husband is a very skilled fisherman, so they gave him free reign the entire trip. Baiting hooks, helping to rig the shark and tuna lines, keeping the live well stocked with fresh bait, and reeling in a big blue shark! We truly felt like we were part of a fishing crew. Thank you Captain Ira and Erica for such a wonderful day!
ot was an absolute pleasure soending the day woth you two !!!
Captain Ira and Erica were great! Very helpful and personable. Not much luck w Stripers but Captain assured us early on that we would “put fish on the boat”..and we did! Mackeral, several cod, whitefish, and others. Highly recommend!
