Fantastic Family Fishing Trip!

Late Afternoon Trip4 adults2 children

We had an amazing time with Captain James and his crew member Hunter! They were great with our two young kids — patient, fun, and very attentive. We caught plenty of fish, enjoyed a gorgeous sunset, and our kids had a blast. Our 5-year-old son even asked if we could take Hunter home — that says it all! Highly recommend for families.

Response from Captain

    We had a great time !!

    Late Afternoon Trip • 5 adults

    We had a great time fishing with Captain James and his first mate . They were very friendly and helpful. The crew is very hands on and does everything they can to make sure everyone in your group is engaged and having a great time. They are very knowledgeable about the aquatic species. Our group was very lucky and caught 5 different types of fish! Thank you for a great time and many memories.

    Great last-minute trip

    Late Afternoon Trip • 2 adults • 1 child

    I wanted to take my son out for one last fishing trip before going back to school, and Shore Thing was able to squeeze us in. They worked with us to get us on the water at the time that would give us the best chance of seeing some action. Everything was very easy; the boat was clean and safe, the gear was well maintained, and the captain was very attentive to making sure we had what we needed and could catch what we were interested in. We had a great time and left with plenty of fish for a few dinners which was awesome 😊

    Reported Catch
    Flounder

    Great morning on the water

    Morning Trip • 6 adults

    My two sons, daughter in law and myself had a great time fishing. Captain James was very knowledgeable, friendly and helpful as was his first mate. We originally scheduled for a Wednesday morning but bad weather was forecasted so we were able to reschedule to Friday morning. We caught about 15 flounder and a few more that didn't quite make it to the boat. They weren't keepers but it was great action all morning. I highly recommend booking with Captain James.

    Great Day on the Water

    Late Afternoon Trip • 5 adults • 2 children

    Captain James and Walt did a great job keeping the kids fishing and catching a variety of fish. They were also very helpful to our 2 kids, 11 and 13, in how to fish! We are looking forward to booking with them in the future.
