Fishing tour 4/5 H Trip (AM) on September 18, 20255 adults

I have been blessed to fish in Mex alot.The boat was clean, had a working radio and all the safety gear. A quick safety talk, game plan and gone. Angel and Brandon were on top of local conditions, could read the water and put us on fish. We caught multiple species and had an excellent trip. Would recommend the team to best of friends.
