Great two day charter

Sunrise Departure - 6+ Hour Charter3 adults

We were a group of three, including a 12 year old boy. Captain Mike really did well at instructing and helping the boy, making sure he had a good time and caught fish. We caught a lot of fish, and the boy has great stories to share. We'll definitely be back, and we'll ask for Captain Mike again.

    Limits both days!

    Sunrise Departure - 6+ Hour Charter • 2 adults

    Fishing was tough this time of year with the weather being inconsistent. Slow start but finished strong both days! Big dog charters had multiple guides. Not just one. We had Chad, my go to guy for now on. Only planned to fish one day and instead, fished 2 days. Can't go wrong with him!

    April fishing trip

    Sunrise Departure - 6+ Hour Charter • 3 adults • 2 children

    Conditions were not perfect, wind was blowing hard but we still caught a bunch of fish. Captain Mark still put us on fish despite 20 mph winds. Kids had a lot of fun.

    Mr. Sean, Thank you again for fishing with us! We are happy to hear you had a great trip and enjoyed your time on the water with Big Dog Fishing Charters and Capt. Steven. As per our phone call it is unfortunate that you feel that you missed time due to the error in address. We always send a detailed confirmation with all the correct details for your trip and were unaware that you received a different address from fishing booker directly. Thank you again and we hope you walked away feeling this was a great experience and we look forward to the opportunity to have you back with us in the future, Susan Bourgeois
