Half Day Trip - Inshore

Half day inshore with Captain Bill

The weather was not ideal and the bite was extremely slow. Bill changed spots, bait and presentation many times to better our odds. The water temperature did not do us any favors either. We would definitely use Captain Bill again and suggest his services to others.
