I did not like spending 1-1/2 hrs. of trip trying to catch bait and still did not get enough bait. The rods seemed hard to crank once fish was on the line. The size of the snapper was smaller than expected. The boat was in very good condition and the Captain was friendly.
Sorry guys but full moon faze has a major effect on catching bait and snappers get very finicky. We couldnโt buy bait because the bait guys couldnโt get them either even though they been out since 3:30 am. When that full moon faze happens the bait spawns and itโs extremely difficult to get. Any time the bait is hard to catch so is everything else, itโs just the cycle of life in the ocean. We have no way of controlling that we just do the best we can for the 5-7 days it effects the fishing. Sorry you were disappointed but itโs just the best I can do with the given situation. Itโs part of fishing. Why are the reels hard to crank? Umm well there is a snapper on the other end of it thatโs a good thing.ย We werenโt crappy fishing.

I booked Maximus before and a much better experience than this time.ย CPT Hall was borderline rude to us most of the Trip.ย We never did find any decent fish most of our time was spent riding.ย Five men shared six small fish no big red snappers and that was what we came for
Tyrone, I am sorry you felt I was rude to you. But you canโt just come on the boat and have a free for all. You canโt sling weights everywhere and have hooks and fish flying everywhere. For the safety of all passengers aboard and the care of my boat if I have to be rude to keep everyone safe and my boat free of chips and damages then I have no choice but to do so after reminding you 15+ times in the first hour. It was rough seas and I did the best I could in 7โ seas. Everyone caught there limit of snappers and seemed to be having fun except the one jerking everything everywhere, which happens to be the review writer. My apologies if I was rude but my boat is my office and I do care about it along with all the other passengers safety.

Per our conversation via text Iโm sorry you felt I should bait you and your 15 yr old sonโs hook. Your a grown man, if you thought the live bait was too icky to touch then Iโm not the boat for you. Itโs a fishing experience, not letโs go to Walmart and drop a line in the frozen section and snag a box of 10 month old tilapia from Afghanistan. 85% of the women and virtually all the kids want to bait their own hook. You caught plenty of fish on your trip but you wanted half your money back because I didnโt bait your hook and gave me a 1 star review. I feel sorry for your son than has to go golfing next summer instead because he caught way more fish than you did. Tight lines!
