Scott, thanks for your review.ย Not sure how we couldโve done any better on this trip.ย You guys booked for a 5 hour trolling/bottom. You asked us to modify that trip for you to catch our bottom fish first.ย We did that.ย We limited out on red snapper really fast.ย We even caught vermilion snapper. We trolled back and caught Kings and Spanish. When back at the dock, you were upset about the credit card processing fee that the marina chargesโฆ all listed in the booking you made.ย We did our best to give you guys a great trip and I think it showed.

Great trip for younger ones, if your more of a independent fisherman try something else.
James Iโm not sure why we received a 3.5 star review.ย You booked a 4 hour trolling trip and we caught plenty of Kings and Spanish. Threw back plenty of other fish. We rescheduled you guys from a day where the weather was unsafe to accommodate you. If you wanted a different type of trip, then you should have booked a 5 hour or 6 hour that includes bottom fishing(all of which are within the description).ย Please next time, you book a trip with another captain, choose the trip you want and base the rating off that. Thanks.

Hi Captain Seth, Well the crew was great ๐ ๐ We didnโt catch any big fish, we caught 3 small fish ๐. Were hoping for a bucket full of red fish Aw wellโฆ
Kristy and Tom, thanks for your review.ย Wish we couldโve had a better bite that day.ย Sometimes fishing isnโt always great for the type of fish we target. That being said, the 3 hour fishing trip is to get you off the beach and catching fish.ย Itโs the least expensive trip you could find. The 3 hour trolling trip is mainly to target Spanish Mackerel.ย We went above and beyond to catch you fish outside the trolling trip.ย We tried for redfish but could not get them to bite.ย We trolled and went out to a spot to bottom drop (we donโt typically bottom drop on these trips). Even though you only got 3 keeper fish, you caught around 20 fish in a 3 hour period.ย We extended your time to try to get you more.ย I hate that you feel like you would not recommend us, but I donโt think another charter would ever make the effort for you like we did. Sometimes fishing is tough and the results arenโt what we hope for but we always try to make the best of it and still show you a good time.

Hey Chad, I apologize for you not having a great experience with us.ย I reached out to you asking to let me know what we couldโve done different to make the experience better but havenโt heard back from you.ย I know the sea conditions got rougher than expected which made the fishing tougher, but we still were able to catch some decent fish even though having to throw back a lot. Please let me know.ย Iโll do my best to resolve the issue.ย I just need to know what the issue was.ย Thanks.
Fishing Booker needs to update there website, it said red Snapper were in season and once we book they email us to say they the red Snapper limits for area has been meet. We thought we would be going to federal waters but we did not. Captain Steve and Franky were very nice. We were not able to keep any of the fish we caught while boots fishing. We did catch ha lot of trigger fish. Three hours into The trip we had engine trouble and heavy smoke on back of boat. We had just gotten to were they had caught Mackerel in the morning fish trip they had done. They had to work on the boat engine for 30-45 mins. We hooked one nice mackerel but did not get it in the boat. We had to ease back to dock and end the trip an hour early. We were refunded 375 of 900 dollar trip. We tipped Franky 120 dollars. Four of my group had never been deep sea fishing and was a terrible first experience. The Captain amd Franky was very nice and did all they could do. Engine trouble on the water can be very scary.

Robin, Iโm sorry you had a bad experience with us.ย We are listed as a state boat on fishing booker which means we are only allowed to fish state waters until we get our federal permits back in the next few weeks. When you booked, I immediately sent you a message saying that the state season was closed, giving you the opportunity to cancel the trip and book a boat that is federally permitted. We high speed trolled out so you guys could have more time bottom fishing since thatโs what you said you preferred.ย Normally we would slow troll out.ย After catching many trigger fish and not stuff that we could keep, I hurried to the place where we could catch pelagic fish that you could take home.ย We had a mechanical issue on the boat.ย I did everything I could to redeem the trip for you guys at that point while also looking out for your safety. We trolled back to the dock.ย We stay on top of maintenance. In a work boat environment, sometimes these types of issues do arise that are out of our control.ย When we got back to the dock, I refunded you right at half the money that was paid to us for the trip even though you were able to fish 4 out of the 5 hours. Again, I apologize we couldnโt have given you the stellar experience we give so many others.
