Highly successful fishing trip!
4 Hour Trip – Halibut/Bottomfish - 8:00 AM on June 28, 20264 adults1 child

Every person in our family caught their halibut and plenty of cod. Captain A. Ramirez made the trip a complete success in both the fishing and the fun time had by all. He was extremely knowledgeable, friendly and professional. He made us feel like family or close friends rather than a business transaction. It seemed we were always on the reel, laughing or a combination of the two. Would HIGHLY recommend him to everyone.

Response from Captain

Chris you are the man! Thanks for the great review, I appreciate you taking the time to leave it. You guys were a blast on the boat, come back anytime so we can keep the fun times going!
