Captain Matt was attentive and encouraging throughout our fishing trip.  Even when we were losing fish while attempting to land them, Matt was patient and instructive.  Once we learned the “tricks of the trade,”  we all limited out. It was a rough day on the water but the Captain was cautious and made sure we were safe at all time.  We are thrilled to have a capable fishing guide on the Kitsap Peninsula.  We are looking forward to our next trip.  Thank you, David Entzminger,...

I took my father out for his 70th birthday. I had never fished before and it had been a long time since my father had gone fishing. Matthew was knowledgable, professional, helpful, and supportive throughout the 4-hour excursion. He sought to provide the best fishing experience and memorable experience for us. He guided us throughout the process, helped as needed, and cleaned/filleted the fish at the end of the trip. I highly recommend Messin’ Around Fishing Charter.

2nd trip with Matt, looking forward to the 3’rd! We we’re booked for King’s, but the Coho were on fire, not so much the King’s. Matt made the call on Coho and we had nonstop action. Really great day, really great captain! It was a busy day on the water, lot’s of boats! But Matt was focused and on task with tackle, net, helm, and lots of smiles. All 4 of us limited on nice fish, including young Jack! Thanks Matt for a great day, see you again soon!!!

We had a BLAST with Matt on our afternoon charter! The morning trip hit their limit fast and we were able to get out on the water earlier - which was awesome. We also very quickly hit our limit with some nice big fish and had so much fun doing it. Matt knew exactly where to go and what to do to get on those fish - would 100% recommend this trip!
