The boat was HUGE!!! and it had a great rig set up--- lots of poles going and very successful! We have never caught salmon before!

Great Trip!
Half Day Trip - 12:15 PM on July 14, 20262 adults3 children

My wife and our three young children went out for an afternoon trip with Captain Joe and his first mate Cam! They handled our sassy daughter and energetic smart a** boys very well with good banter and professionalism! They put us on fish in a July afternoon and was exactly what we were looking for and more with the kiddos along! We will definitely use them again when we are in the area!
