    incredible day fishing

    6 Hr – Fishing Adventure on May 23, 2026 • 6 adults

    I booked a trip with HM originally for myself and four friends. As we got closer to our fishing date I wanted to add two more fishermen to the trip and Scott made it all work out, without issue. Once on the boat, Scott and crew were friendly, efficient and ultimately effective. All party members were able to catch quality fish in a 3/4 day of fishing. Boat was clean and comfortable. Everyone had a great time and made some great menories.
