    Chris was awesome! We came out with 4 children and had apprehension going beyond the surf, but all our worries were set aside. He was super knowledgeable and patient with all our children. All of our children hooked up! Such an excellent experience, really glad we went.

    Epic day with Captain Chris!

    Half Day Fishing Trip on April 16, 2025 • 3 adults

    We are a blasting day with our captain. He arrived before scheduled time, even that weren't the best conditions for Mahis he took us there for our request and after we could catch a Gourupine, Barracuda and 20 yellowtails. He shown great flexibility for us to extend our trip , we ended up not doing it, but was a high light. We will be doing again with him. Strongly recommended

    Best trip ever! Captain Chris is great!

    Half Day Fishing Trip on July 22, 2026 • 4 adults

    We are a family of 4 from Canada, and we went fishing on July 22 for a 4-hour morning trip with Captain Chris. Captain Chris arrived right on time and was fully prepared to give us the best possible experience. His boat is pristine and exceptionally well equipped. Captain Chris is funny, easygoing, and a true expert. We went deep-sea fishing up to 11 miles offshore, where he showed us a variety of techniques—which was both fascinating and super interesting. We got lucky and landed plenty of fish, including a whole bunch of mahi-mahi! It was a wonderful and unforgettable day. We highly recommend Captain Chris and ReelSkinz. Great pricing, top-notch expertise, and tons of fun. Thank you so much!
