My husband and son both have milestone birthdays this year so we decided to go charter fishing as a family to celebrate together. Captain Bob and his first mate, Paxton, were both friendly, engaging, helpful, and encouraging to every member of our family (2 adults, 13yo, 10yo & 8yo). We went out for a 6-hour trip, beginning at 6am, and had a great time. We caught lots spot fish and a couple blue fish. We had a few unfortunate snag events with crab pots and unlucky rockfish losses, but the overall experience was terrific. When we return to fish again, we will now know to limit the trolling portion for blue fish and focus on the interactive fishing aspect as our family would rather catch nothing while interactively trying than just watching a process passively. Captain Bob & his first mate were incredibly thoughtful of allowing my kids to reel in the catches and to prepare everything for our fishing success. The boat was clean and perfect for our family of 5.
