Great trip with a great captain

VERIFIED

Captain Troy was very knowledgable and professional. We tried for rockfish at the bay bridge and Sandy Point lighthouse but not much was biting. We went around Love Point and he got us on some catfish. We caught 38 cats in a matter of 2 hours. They were hitting the bait before it could drop to the bottom. The boat was very clean and comfortable and we all had a great time. Captain Troy filleted all the fish for us and bagged it. Great trip and I highly recommend booking with him....

6 Hour Trip (PM) on July 27, 2024

13 fish in two hours

VERIFIED

Captain Ruth knew exactly where to go catch fish. Once there we caught 3 in 5 minutes and another 10 in the next hour. We had our fill and it was getting hot so we decided to go troll for something else and to cool off. The captain was tentative and engaged in good conversation. Also high marks for his cool boat; easy to get out of the sun and a full head. It was a nice experience, will charter there again.
