Captain Cole knew where the fish were. We had plenty of bait. I took my friend and her son age 10 and my son age 6. We caught: shark, hammer shark, red fish and a sting ray. The kids were thrilled with the live bait well . We feed pelicans, saw dauphins.

Captain Bryce was very knowledgeable on where to fish. We told him we wanted to target larger fish and that’s exactly what happened. He keeps the boat and equipment clean and provided cold water. Would definitely recommend and book again.
