Unbeknownst to me, I had used Good Hit Fishing a few years ago when my cousin was in town.

I realized this as I received communication the day before on where to park and what dock our boat would be on and saw our previous text thread. We had a killer time that day so I was excited for what Saturday’s fishing day was going to be.

The weather was PERFECT. Super calm and flat and just the right amount of sunshine. We were greeted with Captain Ran and we were off at 8am for some fishing.

There was 3 adults and my 9yr old son fishing on Saturday. I was a little nervous as this was my son’s first time fishing on a boat and not just on a dock where he could come and go as he pleased. But Captain Ran took care of my hesitation. He let my son drive the boat through the no wake zone leading out to the ocean and my son thought that was the coolest. It was a great ride and we got to share our previous story of catching a sailfish and mahi and hoping for another go at it. We also learned more about Captain Ran too and some of his stories.

We hit our first trolling area and Captain Ran let out the rods. We were lucky to have a constant string of Bonito fish and had some good reeling! My son was super excited and we love the initial adrenaline of hearing a line run.

We also had 2 decent size barracuda and a big king fish we were able to have filet and take home to cook for lunch.

Captain Ran was very tentative to my son and teach him ways to hold the rod as well as pulling up and reeling down method. It was a great day and we look forward to booking another trip come November when the sailfish and mahi are running again.

Been waiting a long time to have this level of fishing trip. Boat was immaculate. The Captain taught us about kite fishing and we had the pleasure of reeling in a barracuda and a nurse shark (4hr trip). Highly recommend trusting this crew with your charter itinerary.

The weather didn’t cooperate for us, but the captain was very professional and easy to work with.
