Great morning of family fishing!
Had a wonderful morning with Captain Atkinson at Quail Hollow. Departure dock was easy to find and park bathrooms were open at 7:30AM. We left promptly at 8AM and went out trolling for trout on weighted line, spoons, and even a handline! Captain had three trolling combos and one handline going at all times. He showed our teenage son how to retrieve and lay out the line and our son loved to release the trout. Captain also shared observations about the birds (Grebe, Loon, Seagulls sighted) and also about the Peregrine Falcons over snacks of berries and jerky. We caught and released 14 nice trout and probably lost 6 more as we lost them on the retrieve. Highly recommended morning! I’m an advanced fisher and my son and husband are occasional. We all caught and released fish!


thank you for spending time on the water with me. Your son was great!
