Great trip
3/4 Day Trip on April 15, 2024
Our charter with Capt. Pete was really great! It was a beautiful day on the water. Pete was genuinely "just one of the guys" with good conversation and great fishing know how. Bluebird skies made for tougher fishing but we still caught quite a few bass including a couple of 4#ers. He has our recommendation!

Fishing Booking did not inform me that a bigger boat was available. The boat we had was great, but the bigger would have been better.
