We caught baby sharks, mackerel and blue fish! We had an amazing co captain scott he was amazing helping us make sure hooks were baited and stayed out to catch the maximum amount of fish possible as well as helped filet our fish at the end! We also had an amazing captain taking us to all the best places for sharks and mackerel! It was an all around amazing first experience fishing on a boat!
Thanks so much for the kind words! sorry I wasn’t down on deck like i like to be, my arm is still on fire! Thanks for fishing with us! Hope to see y’all again!
Trip was wonderful went home with a feezer full of fish. Only downside no Cobia sightings, water was a bit rough though. The captain and mate worked hard the entire time very knowledgeable and friendly people! I would definitely book again if i go back to that area!
Thanks for fishing with us!
Captain Lou and his mate Greyson were absolutely awesome!! We wanted to bottom fish and bottom fish we did! Although we didn’t catch keeper size Black Sea Bass, we did catch some Black Sea Bass! We caught several juvenile Tautog, Flounder and Black Sea Bass. We did, however; land several good size Trigger Fish and we lost a “door mat” as we were bringing it in!!! On the way back to the dock Captain Lou saw a large school of Red Drum and we tried to catch a few but they were a bit skittish!! We appreciated him trying to cap the day off with a notable catching a Red Drum, but it is what it is! He definitely knew where the fish were but the fish weren’t cooperating!! We’ll see you in December when it’s time to catch some of those keeper size Black Sea Bass!!!!!!
Thanks for fishing with us ! wish we could of got some of those monsters on the boat!
Captain Louis and his crew were amazing! This was our first of many to come. We caught a lot of blue fish, which were very tasty, as well as a few spanish mackerel. Grayson was really good about answering our random questions and all around a big help! 10/10 we’d do it again! Thank you Captain Louis!
Thanks so much for fishing with us!
We need to come back early so the the Capt. let us go out and hour early so we could make it back for a wedding.
Thanks for fishing with us!
