Terrific Father’s Day trip with Captain Sam!
Half Day Trip (PM) on June 15, 20251 adult2 children

Captain Sam knows the freshwater canals and waters very well and apparently many other saltwater spots beyond as well.. His boat is perfect for it and he’s great with kids as he has a lot of grand children. Sam was kind enough to take us on a short notice Father’s Day trip on Sunday afternoon and we caught a ton of fish in terrific scenery. I highly recommended him.
