Great Captain. The water was rough the kids were puking, but still reeled in all the fish. Caught 16 Mahi and 1 wahoo.

Heavy chop. Still caught fish.

VERIFIED   Half Day Reef Charter on June 16, 2025
Captain Galon is a true professional. Heavy winds brought a lot of choppy water. Still caught a few dozen fish to bring home...
