We had a blast!!!
Half Day Trip (AM) on July 2, 2022

We rented this charter to have something to do while we were in town for the holidays visiting family! We had the best time on the water! It was so peaceful and quiet out there. Easy to just relax and catch some fish, and we did! Capt Dave was great! Super funny, very knowledgeable and knew just where to go to catch the fish! We also saw a few turtles which was neat! Highly recommend this charter! We will be back! Thanks again!
