Our family had a good time. The crew was very friendly and knowledgeable. Unfortunately, we were not able to catch a lot of sharks. We did manage to catch a couple of baby sharks. All in all, it was a very fun trip and we would recommend it to others!
Captain and CJ were great. They knew the water had been rough lately and gave us ample warning. we had a great time catching sharks and would go out with this crew again.
we caught 50lbs of Spanish Mackeral! The weather was perfect. The captain and mate were very helpful
While we had fun and caught fish, we only trolled for blues and Spanish mackerel. we were hoping to get some grouper and snapper too. the description of the trip doesn't specify. capt and mate did great.
Thank you for your review! We’re glad to hear you had fun and enjoyed the crew. Our half-day trolling trips are specifically geared toward targeting Spanish mackerel, bluefish, and occasionally false albacore or king mackerel, which is outlined in the trip description on FishingBooker. Grouper and snapper are typically targeted on our full-day bottom fishing trips, where we travel farther offshore and fish different areas. We’re sorry the trip wasn’t exactly what you were hoping for, but we’re happy we were able to provide the experience that was booked. We’d love the opportunity to have you back aboard for a full-day trip so you can experience our bottom fishing as well. Hope to sea you again soon!
awesome family experience! the captain and mate were top notch!
Thank you so much! We’re so glad your family had a great trip with us! We’ll be sure to pass the kind words along to the captain and mate. We hope to have you back aboard again soon! 🎣❤️
