Great boat, captain & catch!
4/5
Knowledgable captain, great boat and equipment. When fish were slow, moved on to other spots, to ensure there was a catch for the day!

My family and I enjoyed our day with Andrew the captain. He was friendly and helpful and we caught 18 fish between us. He put our bait on and filleted all our fish. Thanks again. So awesome 🙌

Half day trip
5/5
We were a party of 4 from the uk and booked a half day trip. Jim was very knowledgeable and friendly. Put us on the fish straight away and we came away with 13 keepers, 4 different species, 3 in Jim’s top 5!
Jim expertly filleted our catch and recommended we take them to the Anchor Inn. They prepared an absolutely amazing meal for us within 40 minutes of arrival, cooking the fish 3 different ways. It was the perfect end to the trip. Fish from sea to table in under 5hrs.

Murray is the best
5/5
Murray from catch my drift provided a most memorable experience. His local knowledge was great and he knew where the fish were. We can’t recommend him highly enough.
