Half Day Trip (AM)

Our group had a great time with Captain Rob. He was extremely knowledgeable and accommodating, which led to us catching a bunch of fish. On top of that, he actually extended our trip just to help one of our group get an extra chance at catching something. His boat is also very nice and clean. I’d recommend to anyone looking to go fishing, whether they are a beginner or seasoned vet.

Captain Robert was very accommodating. My sister and her daughter never fish and they loved it. They caught sand sharks, flounder and a Sea Robyn! My daughter caught a sand shark and several flounder. One of the flounder was big enough to keep. I caught flounder, they put up a great fight. If I make it back I would definitely find captain Robert to take us out again!!

Thank you Captain Fanelli! My husband, our son and friend had a great day for my husbands 60th. Thank you for a great experience for them despite the challenging wind. They really enjoyed it. You were great and they said the boat was perfect. And they got lucky and brought home dinner. Thank you again. Will definitely be recommending in the future. Thanks. Ann

Had a great day on the water today fluking. Caught a bunch, though only one keeper, but the boat was super comfortable and we had a blast. It’s an ideal situation for families or groups where some of the people just want to hang out in the sun, since the boat has a lot of comfortable seating. Great day.

Hi Daniel, Glad you had a good time and appreciate the kind words. We certainly had a perfect weather day and plenty of shorts to keep us busy. Your son is an excellent fisherman. Thanks again and hope to see you again.

Rob was awesome! He made sure we knew what we were doing and honestly seemed more excited about catching fish than we were. He kept moving us to new spots and gave us different gear to try so we had the best shot—and we ended up catching something to take home! We were thinking of checking out other fishing spots, but after today, we’re sticking with Rob. The boat was nice, the water was great, and Rob made it a perfect day out. Can’t wait to go back!
