4 Hour Trip – Inshore

Half day trip with Ben Allen

VERIFIED

There were 3 of us that went on the trip my wife and 18 year old grandson had a great time with Captain Ben Allen. He was very informative of the area we were traveling by boat and pointed out many historical land marks all along St. Mary area. We fished at Cumberland Island and along the jetties, we even saw some wild horses along the shorelines. We were fishing for trout, flounder and any thing else that would bite and brought home plenty of fish. Even though we did not use it for our trip it was good to know that there was a porta potty in a enclosed area if the need should have presented itself. Thanks again Captain Ben for a memorable experience that we will be sharing with each other for a long time.

Ben was great. We caught a good number of fish and multiple species. We had wind issues but he still got us on fish. He is a very knowledgeable captain. Even recommended a shorter trip than we planned because of the tide and wind direction. Would definitely go with him again if ever in the area again. Brian. Go Green!
