    Christmas Fishing Party

    6 Hour Trip - Shared Charter • 9 adults

    We had a group of 10 people on Aquilla for our end of year celebrations.. The boat is fantastic to fish from the Captain was great and even came out to chat and fish with us ..The crew were good the only issue I had was being a group of non smokers One of the crew was smoking and the smell of cigarettes is not nice even on a big boat.. The overall experience was Great and everyone had a fun time and caught fish..

    Reported catch:
    Pink Snapper
    Flathead

    Hi Adam, we’re stoked to hear everyone had a great time and put some fish on deck! We also appreciate you calling out the smoking issue. We’ve had a word with the crew and reinforced our no-smoking policy while they’re on shift, so rest assured that won’t happen again. Thanks again for the honest feedback – it helps us keep improving. Hope to see you back out fishing with us again soon! 🎣🤙

    Great charter, just wish the fish were more obliging 😉

    6 Hour Trip - Shared Charter • 1 adult

    Nice day on the water, we all got a feed, just not the pinkies we were hoping for. Would definately book again, very professional & freindly team from Aquila.
