When we fist booked the charter we did not know what to expect but your expectations were exceeded. Captain Spencer is very knowledgeable, kind and knows all the good fishing spots. We are definitely planning on going on another charter with him in the near future!

Spencer was so great! He was a very experienced fisherman and was very patient with our two young boys. We had a great time fishing and got to take 7 fish home to cook up which were delicious.
