Thank you for the 3 star review considering I did not get to fish with you. As you know I got on my boat to pick you up and the fuel pump failed and the motor would not start. Instead of canceling you I got one of my best Captains with a brand new boat to pick you up asap. The situation was completely out of my hands but I did the best I could to get you on the water. I included my catch of the day photo. A fuel pump. Maybe next time if all goes well we will be going on the water. I hope you enjoy... More

Cliff was great to spend time with. He was knowledgeable, low-key, and friendly. We had a great day on the water and caught plenty of fish. The boat was roomy.

Todd you and your wife were a pleasure to have on the boat and a riot to fish with. I hope when you’re in the area again someday soon we can go again. I’m glad Blackbeards’ took good care of you cooking the fish you caught.

Capt Cliff got us on some nice keeper trout and black drum. We had a nice day on the water. One note: On the main page under Most Popular Features “Catch Cleaning and Filleting” is listed - but if you click on “What’s Included” fish cleaning isn’t included which we didn’t expect.
