Full Day Trip – Offshore1 adult

It was a great day of fishing full of experiences. What I really appreciated is that Delon doesn't look at his watch if the day's target (a big tuna) hasn't been reached yet. Good communication in advance is a matter of course for him.

    Caught Tuna!

    Full Day Trip – Offshore7 adults

    We hooked up 5 fish on 5 poles right from the start. Landed all 5 long fin tuna with the help of captain Delon. We caught 2 50-60lb yellowfin after that and a skipjack tuna later in the day. It was an awesome trip overall and captain Delon made sure we all had fun the whole time.

    I have had better trips.

    Half Day Trip – Inshore2 adults

    A bit of buyer beware, sorry for the long read We were told to meet the boat at 7am which we showed up to on time only for the crew to tell us that the tide was too low to go out yet. Which was fine, so we waited 30-45 minutes when they decided to launch the boat. The crew then got the boat trailer and truck stuck in the launch. This took 2 hours for them to get the truck and trailer out which we had to wait for it to be done before we could leave. Once the truck was out the crew tried to take off and the one motor would not work. So they spent the next hour trying to get the motor work. Once we had almost gave up the motor took off and we got going. So we started fishing just after 11am. We fished until 2 pm and unfortunately did not catch anything. I am fully aware that you can go out and not catch anything. The boat and crew were both good once we got going but this is where I have a huge issue. I lost half a day of fishing because of the boat and was still charged full price. When I asked the crew if we could work out a deal they said there was not much they could do because it was not their boat. After we left I contacted the owner and told him I was not happy he still charged me full price for half a day of fishing. He gave no option of giving my money back. He did say though that he would give me a 4 hours free fishing with him. I asked when that would be since I don’t live in Cape. He said he would phone me and we would work out a time. I never got a call and it has been over a week. I get you don’t always catch fish. I was more than happy to pay for the time we were on the boat and don’t expect to have a whole day of free fishing because of issues that could happen to anyone. But when you charge full price and not fulfill your obligations and then ghost me when you say you going to make it right is a real unprofessional move. So for this I would not recommend this boat.
