We took a half day morning fishing trip.ย I mistakenly believed we were fishing for keepers and had our ice chest ready to take our haul home.ย Needless to say, we chose a โsportโ fishing trip and did not get to keep anything we caught. Which was ok, as we caught only one shark and a bunch of bait fish. The trip was disappointing, as this was our entertainment โsplurgeโ of our week long vacation.ย Captain Nathan kept a very tidy boat with a cooler of ice for our drinks. Bring a towel with you as you will need it to wipe your hands after you remove the bait fish you catch. We fished near shore, by the space ship launches, but Nathan didnโt point out the interesting sites to us. We also passed a submarine that was in port. It would have made the trip a bit more fun if he had played tour guide for all the sightseeing there was to be had on this trip. We only learned about the cool stuff because we asked. Nathan is a competent boat Captain with whom I felt safe, even though the seas were a bit rough.

Hi Teresa thanks for the feedback. I apologize for any missed information there was about your trip you booked, fishing booker only allows me a small description of each trip so unfortunately i canโt fit all the details in the description. But i do send a confirmation text with a lot of details about the trip and it does say to bring a towels a rag or paper towels in it as well. And i usually have 2-3 other rags to use to wipe hands with as well. You booked a 4 hr nearshore shark trip, not a half day offshore trip. The state of Florida has a huge fishing industry thus we have a lot of regulations on what fish we can keep. Our main goal is to take customers out on a fishing trip to catch fish when they want to cooperate, if itโs something we can keep itโs a bonus. There was nothing brought to my attention that one important thing about this Trip was to bring fish home to keep. Iโll never give false hopes on a trip Iโm here to make sure you have a good time. I would of recommended an offshore trip for that or even the local fish market before i would take you out on a trip where i think we might not catch a fish to keep. I wish i could control the fish and make them bite but unfortunately thatโs the nature of the beast and what keeps us coming back. I have a picture of the nice size shark your husband had caught Iโm glad we were able to at least get that one for him! I hope you can understand a little more about all the obstacles that we work with to try and make the trip work for you and give it another shot. Thanks again
