4 Hour Trip – Ocean (PM) on June 27, 2024
This trip was to introduce my 13-year-old grandson to saltwater fishing. Captain Todd knew this and instantly took my grandson under his wing, explaining the how and why of everything we/he was doing. From how to set the different lines, check for grass on the line and how to unhook the fish and then let him do it as he coached him. My grandson can't stop talking about the trip which is exactly what I had hoped for. If you're a seasoned fisherman or want to do what I did with your family, Captain Todd is your man. He's been doing this for 19 years and knows the area and where the fish should be. Rember, it's fishing and sometimes the fish don't cooperate. BTW, we caught plenty of fish. Icing on the cake. I would definitely recommend captain Todd to anyone who is looking for a good time on the water. Already planning something for the fall. Dennis Andersen

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.

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.

My wife and I went on a quick 3 hour Inlet Charter and had an amazing time! The captain put in us some nice reds. He was extremely down to earth and enjoyed sharing his knowledge of the local fishery and restaurants. Would definitely recommend it.
