What a great day of fishing and sightseeing for our entire family. Captain Luke listened to what we wanted to do and was able to fit it all in. Seal watching and island exploring for my wife and a couple of hours of fishing for the kids and I. Although we didn't catch any monsters like we were hoping, we did catch a large variety of fish and some we have never seen before. I highly recommend Captain Luke to anyone interested in going out on the water off of Acadia.
Thanks for the nice review, Paul. I had a nice time this afternoon. hope to see you all again!
Captain Luke was so nice and very knowledgeable about the area and the wildlife. I took my kids on a 3 hr tour and they caught some fish and got to see the captain bring up his lobster cages. He even showed them how to tell the difference between males and females and explained what to look for on females. They had an amazing time.
We book a fishing charter on almost every trip we take. In the 25+ years we’ve been taking fishing trips, this is hands down one of the best. Boat was comfortable, had everything we needed, and the captain supplied water and snacks. The best part of this trip was Luke, the Captain. He’s knowledgeable, friendly, and went out of his way to make sure we did as much (or as little) as we wanted during our trip. Photos are of our dinner that we made as soon as we got home.
Thanks for the kind review. It was a great trip & I really enjoyed meeting both of you!
After many hours of catching redfish, Pollock, mackerel, and cod. as we kept on fishing for the fun, smaller fish. Luke throughout a tuna rod just for the heck of it within about 15 minutes the rod started pulling off the reel started screaming! oh my gosh, we had one on. An incredible fight ensued. After over an hour of getting him to the boat twice and getting to see him crest one time he looks like something prehistoric. Our guide, who commercial for bluefin tuna approximated that it was about 600 pounds and 7 1/2 feet long. We were gonna have to release him anyway, because the season for recreational fishing was over. This season for commercial fishing was only certain days of the week in order to keep their fishing grounds in good health. The tune ran out the line again and DJ reeled, him back in to the boat as he got close to the boat Luke said he will either be tired enough that we could get a good picture of him in the water and release him or he would dive straight down and spin enough that his fin would cut the line. Unfortunately, that is what happened and you could see the end of the line was bent. but wow one an amazing day and one an adventure. We would highly recommend going out with Luke. In fact we were scheduled to do another day, but it was too windy to go out.
We had a great trip with Captain Luke! We took our two boys, ages 6 and 10. They caught several fish. We then went lobster fishing and they loved it! They got to hold the lobsters and help push the trap back in the water - a very hands on experience. We highly recommend this trip!
