Great time! Very knowledgeable.

Custom pick up from the exact place I asked was so convenient. Greeted happily be the crew and immediately the knowledge started flowing. Learned so much local history and in formation on the way out to fishing grounds the time flew by. Did light tackle trolling up past Rose Island and Moose the First Mate was awesome really knows what he is doing. Captain Eddie was superb he really know how to handle a boat. Stopped at a shallow reef on the way back and snorkeled a little. Tons of fish and even had a grilled burger and a beer ready when we got back on the boat. 5 star experience hands down.
