Captain Tried His Best
3 Hour Trip – Weekday on July 30, 20263 adults

Despite a few rescheduling issues due to weather the trip was fun and memorable.. The Captain did his best to deliver on the fishing experience but the region is heavily fished this time of the year. We all hooked some fish very few keepers but over it was a fun and scenic boat ride on the ocean and the bay.

Nikolaos, It was great to meet and fish with your family. Remember Bonine to help with the motion sickness on the next trip out. Which fish tasted better? The Flounder or The Trigger fish?
