Our third year with Capt Alex. We have caught fish each time out. We only do the 2 hour trip because we have a 7 year old with us. He loves it

Great Kids Trip
5/5
Took two 12 year old girls out and had exciting and memorable experience in just the 2 hour trip. Our strategy was quantity and the captain produced. They were still reeling them in on the last retrieval to leave. Great experience!

Capt Ryan was always finding a new spot to keep the bites coming. Almost had our limit of red fish in one cast. Fishing the area around the beautiful scenery was a great time. He Even got our casts under dock shade when we struggled to hit the right cast location.
