This was our first experience deep sea fishing. Captain Shannon was very patient with us and knowledgeable of the fish we caught and the area we fished. Shannon is super friendly and easy to work with. Thanks Captain Shannon!

If you want to watch captain fish with three poles for 6 people, then book this trip. He can find the fish but you are on a rotation with who reels it in. I pretty lame, kids were sitting waiting instead of fishing. They all can fish , too bad really

My wife and kids (boys 9 and 11) and I scheduled a half day trip with captain Shannon. Everything seemed fine until we actually started fishing. He was very bossy and in some ways rude to my boys and my wife. He knew that my boys had very little experience fishing as I informed him prior to the trip. He displayed little to no patience with them as they fished. He would tell them to reel up followed seconds later by yelling at them to REEL UP. Told my wife at one point she had to tell him she had... More

Thanks Chris and best wishes. You and your sons smile aren’t in line with your review. We were limited to the spots we could fish due to the winds being high out of the South. I did ask you all to reel up several times during the time when we were anchoring .if I were to get fishing line in my motors the cost could be as high as $5000. Glad we could fulfill you bucket list with the redfish.

We did struggle with the wind gusting over 22 mph. Ended up with a few keepers and an educational on Lacrosse. Hope to see you for Snapper Season 2019.
