Jesse was a great guy, beautiful boat, and helped my little brother (and i) how to catch those trout. Pickins were slim that day, but he tried his best and never gave up. Will fish with Jim again.

Great 7 hour trip despite some fog

VERIFIED

Despite fog that did not burn off until after 10am my 13 yo son and I had a great day on the water. Hit appx 10 different spots and hooked over a dozen speckled trout. Including the last one that we caught and ate at a restaurant two hours after boating it. Excellent trip... excellent captain. Very prepared and good with kids. My son refused to bring a jacket and when he started shivering on the boat captain Jesse offered his. A+ Customer service and A+ enthusiasm for his profession.
