We had a fantastic trip. First and foremost, the captain cared about our comfort. The day we were supposed to fish the weather was cold and extremely windy. The captain provided us with an alternative day so we could have a better experience. When we did start our trip, my 83 year old Dad shared that he was cold and the captain whipped out a spare coat.

The captain was great with two rambunctious and excited boys (8 and 10). He provided them age appropriate task and knew how to keep them busy even in the down time. The best were his one liners about how long it takes to catch the shark!

I also want to note that the captain was great at handling our party that had multiple generations. He showed everyone how to get on the boat properly whether they were old or young and had great rules regarding safety.

I would highly recommend A Live One to all looking for a comfortable and fun time.

Good day on the water. Everyone very friendly.
Scheduled for the afternoon but got a call offering next morning to avoid heavy winds. Good call, the weather was perfect.
Note, Captain Blaire was willing to go as scheduled, but felt lower winds would result in a much more enjoyable trip.
We have little experience fishing but he made us feel right at home. In just 3 hours he caught the bait and we landed 5 sharks between 2-4.5 feet. Mixture of black tip and fine tooth including a 30 minute fight for one fine tooth who had no intentions of giving in.
Boat and equipment were in good order. Gave us a good safety brief before we left and even included a little HHI history lesson.

We were visiting from Illinois, and Blair took us out for 3hrs. Blair was a great captain from the start engaging our family showing us wildlife along the trip.  My 12 year old son had the opportunity of catching 2 sharks, hold a squid while my daughter’s (18 & 23) enjoyed seeing the dolphins Blair was able to spot for us.  Great Trip and it was money well spent.

Captain Blair provided an awsome day on the water. He took the time to explain what he was doing and why. I had three curious teenage boys. All three caught a shark. We saw manta rays and dolphin. We went on a four hour trip which included cast netting for bait. It was all inshore so the water was relativley smooth. A plus!
