3 Hour Trip – Trolling
Captain Hugh was great!
We were a family of 4, new to fishing in the gulf. We had a great experience. Captain Hugh went the extra mile in all aspects of our excursion. My boys had a blast catching fish & were in a competition to see who could catch the most. It was fun watching them catch our entire time! Very personable & friendly. I would recommend Captain Hugh!
