Half day afternoon trip on the Prowler
4/5
This was an excellent trip. Captain Louis and first mate Marianne did very well. Although we did not have any luck trolling or catching much to eat, bottom fishing keep us active catching at least 6 species of fish like croaker, trout, bass, trigger fish, porgies, tautog, and others. Marianne was great with keeping us active and educating us about the fish and catching them.
Highly recommended
