Solid Fishing Guide
Half Day Trip on June 5, 20254 adults

We couldn’t have chosen a better fishing guide for a local trip here in the Bay. I was impressed with Captain Charles and his ability to address each of my kids on their level; he took extra care with my daughter who needed more attention. Even though we were 4 people he was attending to and as a result often replacing hooks/assisting with casting among other things, he never appeared frustrated or bothered by the constant need for his assistance. When we finished, he graciously cleaned the fish. We would use him again for sure. Thank you Captain Charles for a fantastic, successful fishing trip!
