This was a tremendous trip for our family. Captain Bill and John were AMAZING. They were fun, involved, and very passionate about everyone enjoying their time.

Bill and John made our First fishing trip awesome!! Bill knows the water.  Took us and put us on some good fish. Went out about 10 miles or so and let us fish in many different spots.

My group was comprised of myself and my four grandsons aged 12 through 17.  The Captain and Deckhand were terrific in their interactions with my boys, careful, patient and encouraging.  They were grinning most of the time and clearly enjoy working with young, inexperienced new fishermen.  It was a very successful trip both from the number of fish caught and the thrills had by the boys!  One fish caught by the youngest provided a 30+ minute fight, ultimately shared by all the boys.
