Amazing Trip!

VERIFIED

Captain Craig was upfront about what the plan was and getting us on the fish. Didn't waste time with a spot that wasn't producing. Moved to another spot he knew well and they started flying in the boat!! Hammer heads, sharp nose shark, bonnet head, even an eel! Then, the double up on my bucket list fish, Bull Reds!! Great experience, Craig was also great with our kids too! Can't wait to come back to HHI and only book with Captain Craig! Thank you for the memories!
