    Captain Josh was great!

    2hr kids special4 adults2 children

    Captain Josh was very knowledgeable, patient and generous with his bait. Only complaint with my husband was that the women got all the fish (Me) LOL. He took us in the areas that were good spots. My catch for the 2hr trip was 3 Flounder, a Seabass and 2 crabs. I had one Flounder that was 18” that Josh quickly and professionally cleaned for us, bagged it up for us to take home. We will definitely look up Josh nexf year when we return. We all enjoyed our trip!

    The Captain was AMAZING! My wife and I took our daughter, her husband and two children, and the captain was great with the kids, a two year-old and a seven-year-old. We even got to do a little sightseeing! We got his business card so the next time we’re back in the area we can make sure we book with him. Great memories were made today. If you’re thinking about going, this is the guy to book. He is fantastic!

    We had an awesome time on this fishing trip! The whole experience was relaxed, fun, and exactly what we were hoping for. The captain was fantastic—friendly, knowledgeable, patient, and made everyone feel comfortable, He kept the atmosphere light and enjoyable while making sure we had every opportunity to catch fish. We never felt rushed, and it was clear he genuinely wanted everyone to have a great time. We made some great memories and would absolutely book another trip. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a laid-back day on the water with a great captain!

    so much fun!!

    2 hr happy hour5 adults

    Captin Josh was awesome! My 4 kids and I had a very nice cruise out to some great fishing spots. The water was extremely busy due to the White Marlin boating contest and Captin Josh navigating us through the traffic was flawless. He educated us on homes, history and taught kids how to fish in the bay. My one daughter caught a pregnant blue crab and he took time to teach us all and show us her “sponge” like egg sack. Thank you for a wonderful trip Captin Josh!! We will definitely reach back out for future rides when OCMD.
