Captain Zeke is a hero. A great young captain making all the right decisions for an incredibly productive fishing day. The broker, however, not so much. We paid top dollar for a day trip and felt short-changed.

Here is what you texted me? “It was an excellent fishing day. Zeke is a rockstar. The 26’ Blackman was a tough go for us. Thanks, Roger” first off, it’s a 31’ Blackman and that is Zeke’s preferred boat to take offshore. Secondly, you caught 13 Yellowtail offshore on paddies while everyone else was struggling at Coronados getting just a few if any. Lastly, there was no bait and switch. There was a misunderstanding between us regarding a “trophy trip” which I only offer custom packages and not available on my website or Fishing Booker. Sorry that skiff fishing isn’t your thing and we appreciate your business. Next time you can request the bigger boat or feel free to book elsewhere! Thank, for the feedback and taking the time with your review! Take care!
