5hr Trip — Flounder(AM)
Captain Derek and Kevin were amazing. Helpful with the kids and made it a fun experience. We caught a ton of makeral and used them for live bait fish for the 3 stripers we caught. He filet’d them up after so we could enjoy a nice dinner from the fresh fish we caught. Definitely booking with him again
