3 Hour Trip – Coastal (AM)
Although I don’t typically write reviews I wanted to leave one here today for a couple reasons. Firstly the reviews other anglers left helped me make a smart choice by selecting Edward Teach charters. Being I grew up on the water fishing, sailing and surfing I don’t say this lightly when I report that captain Dalton is not only a fisherman but a true waterman. He and his crew are truly world class. The boat is spectacular, his mate is fantastic and they honestly care their charter has an enjoyable experience. I read in previous reviews that he was good with children and my 11 yr old son is already asking when can we go back. Thank you Dalton and Ramona - sincerely - thank you!

8 Hour Trip – Offshore
We recently had an unforgettable family fishing trip near Catalina Island, specifically around Avalon. The experience was truly special, as we were able to spend quality time together on the water. Although the Marlin and Dorado weren’t biting, we did manage to catch a sheepshead, which added to the excitement of the day. One of the highlights of our trip was seeing plenty of dolphins. Watching them in their natural habitat was a magical experience that we will cherish. The scenic beauty of Catalina Island and the charm of Avalon made the outing even more enjoyable. Overall, it was a fantastic trip, and we look forward to exploring more fishing locations in the future. Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for a memorable fishing adventure with family!

Dalton took myself and my three sons on our first ocean fishing trip. He did a great job finding the fish even if we were not lucky (or skilled) in our fishing. The boat was awesome and very clean. Dalton was knowledgeable, professional, and helpful. We all had a wonderful time and look forward to the next trip!!

4 Hour Trip – Coastal (AM)
Took my 4 grandsons (3 of them 8-10 yrs old) fishing along with their dads and we caught 1 sand bass but the real experience was driving out fast, seeing all the dolphins swim next to the boat, and throwing the anchovies to the seals on the buoys. Also Dalton let each of the boys drive his boat. Great experience they will always remember. Thanks!!
