Had a blast!!
4 Hour Trip – Inshore/Bay (PM) on June 10, 2026 • 4 adults

Our captain Jarod was very kind and took us to an amazing spot. He got our lines out quick and kept them baited. It was non stop catching and the kids had a blast. All we had to bring was food, water, and sunscreen. Definitely a 10 out of 10 experience that I would recommend to anyone!
