Lots of fish

We had a great half day experience. Great Captain and it was fun that his son was his first mate. We caught lots of fish , but didn’t catch any that we could take home. Some weren’t in season and others were not good eating fish. We didn’t lack for action and our arms were tired when we got home.

Four hour fishing trip

CPT Bill and Jonathan took us to 5 different spots trying to find fish. Second spot several Spanish mackerel, a couple of blues and a spec. Second spot caught 1 spec. Last spot was targeting reds but there were too many red snapper (unfortunately they were not in season) so we had to leave.
We used several different artifhal baits but no live bait.
I would recommend that if you intend to keep fish let them know. He said they usually throw them back cause most folks don’t want them.
All in all I was satisfied. Fishing could have been better but that’s fishing. CPT Bill worked hard to put us on fish. I would go with him again.
