thank you. i had a blast glad to meet you guys
thank you for the review can i ask wha about the boat you didn't like so i can change or fix. thank you
We had to reschedule our initial day due to bad weather, dang storms!, but Gerald was very accommodating and we went out a couple of days later. Winds were strong but the captain made sure that we were always fishing with the winds and not against them. We caught absolutely gorgeous coho and a huge spring and a sea bass! When the fishing slowed down, the captain changed gear, reeled up and every time we'd have a fish on! Gerald is very kind and communicative. He is calm and an expert at what he does. We had a wonderful time and I can't wait to book again next year!
Gerald is very chill, accommodating, and dedicated captain in the field. He is very knowledgeable about sea and the local fish habits in the area and I enjoyed learning about them from him very much. The sea that day seemed very slow or even usual and all other boats around us were not catching anything. But he did not give up on us and tried every different spot and depth/gears to make sure we'd have a good time. And we got busy hooking salmons one after another in the end and we had a lot of fun landing that salmon rush! Thank you Gerald.

Fish fish more fish I have a huge love for the water and am constantly reading charts. Paying attention to what is going on around me on the water.
