Excellent Captain & crew!
4 Hour Trip on August 5, 20263 adults1 child

Captain Chris Aiello and Kevin, his crewman, were outstanding. They were polite, professional, and very knowledgeable and aggressive fishermen. Kevin was a workhorse, non-stop keeping things in order and lines in the water. Captain Chris made sure that every ounce of our time was being spent efficiently. They made sure that we understood every aspect of the day and were patient and understanding when fielding our many questions. And most of all …We caught fish!!! They made this father & son (3 sons) fishing trip a memorable one. I highly recommend Bay Breeze Sportfishing and anticipate utilizing them again in the near future.

Great crew, great trip
4 Hour Trip on June 5, 20264 adults2 children

Booked this trip because of the features offered on the boat and their high ratings.I had a couple young children, age 7 with us and it was their first time doing this kind of trip. Captain Christopher and first mate Kevin were amazing. Both kids got sea sick pretty early into our trip but the crew was very accommodating and understanding. They made every effort to make sure we were comfortable. In spite of having to come in early because of the children we still were able to catch a couple big tuna. The kids started feeling better heading in and the crew offered to let them fish off the dock while they prepped the fish we caught. Overall we had a great day on the water, caught some fish and went home with some filets for dinner. I would reccomend this charter to anyone regarldess of experience. I will be booking with them for future trips. Thank you guys for a great time.

4 Hour Trip on August 19, 20263 adults

Both Chris & Kevin were excellent hosts with a wealth of knowledge & experience. The fish were not biting but they kept trying different techniques to help us catch, not a massive haul, yellow tail salmon, amber jack & finished on a high with a 12ft shark. Would definitely book these guys again 5 out of 5
