Fantastic!
5/5
Brutally hot day.
Capn' Frank worked his tail off to find tarpon.
We lost several, but then our luck turned and we spent over an hour fighting this huge fish!
It was truly a memorable trip.
Thanks, Frank!

Great Day Fishing
5/5
We had a great time with Capt Dave! It was windy, seas were a rough and fish weren’t biting when we first went in. Capt Dave went above and beyond to make sure we found some action, and man did he! We caught a variety of different fish, from Reds, trout, catfish to a nice little tarpon. An amazing afternoon spent with him and his first mate, River!

Great Evening on Lake Norman with Captain Frank
5/5
Captain Frank made us feel like family. Very good at what he does. Even though the fishing was slow due to the heat, he treated us very well, was very complimentary, we still caught fish and had a lot of fun and laughs. Not a huge deal but in such hot weather it would have been to see that his refreshments were colder than they were....maybe more ice perhaps. I hope to go tarpon fishing with him someday in Florida.

Captain Todd took us to several spots where we caught different species of fish throught the day. The highlight of the day was when we landed a beautiful tarpon. We also saw bald eagles, dolphin and manatees. Great experience!! Will go back of in the Tampa area again.
