I want to start by saying I had a great time as did everyone in my party. The captain was very punctual though he Allowed us to wait for one of the members of our party before we departed. When we got to the fishing spot they were not biting, and instead of having our time wasted the captain and first mate helped us catch eight good size rockfish, which we ate the following day. The first mate filleted the fish on the back of the boat as it was moving and did a marvelous job. Lastly the captain was able to avoid a storm that was approaching by rerouting us around the storm and keeping us dry. I definitely recommend Ebb Tide Charters to anyone who wants to have a good time regardless of skill level.
