We took the 6 hour trip. We understand the captain cannot control the seas or the weather. We spent over an hour getting to a spot that we could not fish in. Then more looking for other spots. The fishing area is so tight next to the other people beside us all we did was tangle into each otherโs lines the whole time and bump into each other. There were close to 70 people on the boat and only 5 -6 deckhands. We felt we wasted time waiting on the deck hands to untie our lines for the small amount of time we actually had to fish. Other customers were frustrated as well. Will not go again.

We are sorry you feel this way. This boat does hold up to 65 people for fishing. You are told that when you book the trip. This boat does take 2-hours to your first fishing spots. Sometimes the current does cause the lines to get tangled. However, we do only use 5-6 mates on this boat because they do know what they are doing. I would try a smaller boat with less people the next time you boat a fishing trip or a private boat.
Thank you for your 5-star review.
