    Great morning of family fishing!

    3 Hour Trip • 3 adults • 1 child

    Had a wonderful morning with Captain Atkinson at Quail Hollow. Departure dock was easy to find and park bathrooms were open at 7:30AM. We left promptly at 8AM and went out trolling for trout on weighted line, spoons, and even a handline! Captain had three trolling combos and one handline going at all times. He showed our teenage son how to retrieve and lay out the line and our son loved to release the trout. Captain also shared observations about the birds (Grebe, Loon, Seagulls sighted) and also about the Peregrine Falcons over snacks of berries and jerky. We caught and released 14 nice trout and probably lost 6 more as we lost them on the retrieve. Highly recommended morning! I’m an advanced fisher and my son and husband are occasional. We all caught and released fish!

    Reported catch:
    Rainbow Trout (Steelhead)
    Response from Captain

    thank you for spending time on the water with me. Your son was great!

    44 Years Married- Celebration catching trout with Skipper Damon

    3 Hour Trip • 2 adults

    The 2 of us landed 17 trout, lost 5, released 12, filleted 8. We could not have done it without our skipper. An amazing pontoon with all the bells and whistles to go with Damon’s years of experience. Our fishing trip with Damon made our anniversary all more special. Africa is calling you Damon. Tight lines Johnny & Bev

    Grest time

    3 Hour Trip • 2 adults

    Just what the Dr ordered. we always try to fish somewhere whne on vacation. I was surprised when i saw we were trolling but all worked out when the fish started biting. We caught a bunch of trout. Captain Damon was good enough to filet 6 for us to rake back and feed the family. Capt. Damon was a joy. we had a great morning on the water.

    Reported catch:

    Friendly, knowledgeable, and great with kids. Had fun and brought home dinner for the whole family. Talked about things to do and places to see in the area. He cleaned out catch for us too. Highly recommend booking with Dreamseason.
