My son and I had a fun early morning trip!  The Vista Lady Crew far exceeded my expectations.  I truly appreciated how comfortable they made us feel.  As a woman having a young son… and going by ourselves… I can feel a little nervous about booking trips with people we don’t know.  I felt very at ease, and we loved every minute of it! 
We enjoy being on the water and experiencing different ways to target different fish species.  We will definitely be making it a yearly trip.  Thank you!

We went on a fishing trip with Captain Ryan and mate Jerry this weekend on VistaLady. We were celebrating my husband’s birthday and we had such a great time! They were so knowledgeable, helpful, and great company during the 5-hour trip. Not only did we catch fish, but Jerry fileted them and bagged them for us right there on the boat. Even our daughters (9 and 5) had a great time catching fish and relaxing! I would highly recommend VistaLady to anyone. We hope to fish with them again in the future!

What an unforgettable fishing trip! It was the five of us, me, my husband, and our three boys (13, 11, and 7), and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The captain was absolutely amazing. He baited our hooks with live eels, taught the boys everything they needed to know, and made the whole trip fun and easy.

The boat ride itself was beautiful, a nice long cruise with perfect weather, and when we got to the spot, he knew exactly where to go. We caught some massive rockfish, and the captain even cleaned and bagged them up for us. We grilled them when we got home, and they were delicious!

He was so friendly, patient, and great with the kids. We all had a blast and are already planning our next trip. Highly recommend, five stars all the way!

My family of 5, including me, had a fantastic, lifelong, memorable, fishing trip experience with Captain Ryan & 1st. Mate Kramer!!

All my family commented what a wonderful, fun time, they had on the fishing cruise, and they wanted to do a re-do, soon!!

This fishing trip was my 6th. deep sea charter boat fishing trip, in many oceanic locations, and timeframe lengths; but, none of my other family members had ever been on a charter boat fishing trip before. This cruise was, “by far”, the best charter boat fishing trip I have ever been on!!!

I was expecting to do a lot of fishing support for my family because of their in-experience. I did not have to lift a finger of support to them, or myself, for anything! Capt. Ryan & 1st. Mate Kramer, took care of everything, even “my fishing rod”!! Because of that I could rest & relax and enjoy the fishing myself!!
That was truly refreshing!!

We simply had a ball with the Vista Lady crew & had an awesome time on the water. My family, myself & any others we talk to will want to charter with the Lady Vista crew again, soon!!!

A beautifully clean boat, a helpful & friendly Captain and mate, and a nice fat catch all made for perfect day fishing on the Chesapeake for my group of six (four adults, two teenagers).  Every single one of our party managed to catch both a rockfish and catfish each!  We might have even caught a few more catfish had we not decided to call it quits with what we had.

Both Captain and mate for the day were there to teach us where to look and how to fish for both rockfish and catfish, as well as clean and filet them all for us on the ride back to the docks- and our catch easily fed a group of 8 that night with plenty for leftovers!

Can’t recommend highly enough!  Will be booking again next opportunity.
