4 Hour Trip – Ocean (AM) on July 9, 2025
Todd is a great captain. We would have had a great time even if we did not catch anything. But, he was able to find us some fish even in tough wind conditions. On top of a1/2 dozen mackerel, we caught about a dozen blue fiah. From the radio traffic, it sounded like we did better than any other boat out that day. I would definitely book this trip again and would recommend it to my friends and family.

Captain Todd was fantastic—funny, personable, and genuinely passionate about making the trip enjoyable. He took the time to explain the tackle and techniques, ensuring we understood exactly what we were looking for. Despite the weather and the fish not quite cooperating, he went the extra mile to make sure we still had a great time and caught something. Absolutely worth every penny, and I’ll definitely be booking with him again in the future!

2 Hr Ocean Trip AM on July 8, 2025
Had a great experience. Took 4 young teenage boys...inexpierienced, easily bored, and not super interested. Our captian was very knowledgeable, personable, and made this a trip of a lifetime. All the boys had a great time, caught lots of fish, and seen a lot of dolphin, too. Thanks for a great time. Would highly recommend!

3 Hour Trip – Rudee Inlet (AM) on March 19, 2025
Capt. Todd is the kind of guide you appreciate. Professional, thoughtful, and ready to make suggestions. He knew where the fish would be. We caught 3 fish and had some bites. It was cold weather, so the fish weren't as active, but that's the chance you take. It was a lovely morning none the less. When it is on the cooler side I recommend an afternoon trip.

3 Hour Trip – Rudee Inlet (PM) on March 22, 2025
Booked Todd after a last minute change of plans for a father and son trip. We had a blast. Even though it was windy, Todd was able to help us have a great time on the water and we even managed to reel in some decent sized fish. With Todd’s instructions, my son was casting like a pro in no time. I would highly recommend Todd.
