Captain Chad and his first mate were AMAZING!!
Full Day Trip – Fishing on March 29, 2025
I wanna start this review off by mentioning that I called Captain Chad at almost 7pm the night before to schedule this fishing trip. This was a complete spur of the moment/ last minute idea. Even with an incredibly short notice Captain Chad and first mate absolutely put us on the fish!!! This is a very well ran operation! The boat and fishing equipment was top notch as well as the Captain and his wonderful first mate! They both went above and beyond and I 10/10 recommend Captain Chad with LFG fishing charters. Thank you for the amazing memories.
