    Just like I remembered!

    4 Hour Trip – Bay (AM) • 6 adults

    Other than one trip with my late uncle in 1999, I haven’t flounder fished in the back bays since my father passed in ‘96. As a tribute to what would’ve been my father‘s 90th birthday, my brother-in-law and I decided to charter a boat and try to catch a couple of flounder. We each took our two sons, and all I could say is that I wished my dad could’ve been there with us! We each had some action with catches, and my youngest caught a great keeper… His first flounder ever! Captain Mark and Matt were awesome! They both made sure we had everything we needed, and kept us engaged with stories and pointers. Both of them had great knowledge of the area and were happy to share tips with us to make sure our day was as action packed as it could’ve been. You have to remember that this is fishing, as some days are good and some days are not… Even though we didn’t go home with a cooler full of keepers, in my books this was a great day!

    Great trip with the family

    4 Hour Trip – Bay (AM) • 6 adults • 3 children

    Captain Mark and Matt did a great job finding us fish. My kids (11, 10, and 7) had a really great time. Mark put us on the fish and Matt was a great first mate. The boat has so much fishing space it made spreading out and having room to fish really easy, even with three young anglers. Mark and Matt were entertaining and were happy to share their vast fishing knowledge. We will be back out with them as soon as we can.

    great trip

    Great trip from start to finish. The captain and first mate were outstanding—friendly, engaging, knowledgeable, and always willing to help. They kept everyone laughing, made sure we were comfortable, and worked hard to ensure we had a great time on the water. Their professionalism and positive attitude made the experience even better. Highly recommend!

    Fair rates, great Captain, great fishing, stable vessel, lots of room. First Mate was second to none, took the time to explain to the kids about all we were doing, animals, birds, and creatures we encountered.
