5 Hour Trip – Inshore Fishing6 adults

I booked this charter for my wife, sons and grandchildren. Captain Joseph and the crew made us all very welcome and were very hospitable. They showed great knowledge of the area and marine life, and and were very efficient in the way they operated, maximizing our time of fishing. Our catch was filleted and bagged for us to take home. I was also impressed by their safety procedures during the trip. An added highlight was seeing a pod of dolphins. Apart from the sea being a bit " choppy" I would highly recommend this charter and looking forward to booking another trip with them in the near future.

    Perfect sea conditions, great morning out.

    Glassy ocean and even though the temp of the water was a little chilly we still managed to get fish on hooks. Not huge fish but fish none the less. Look forward to booking again next year.

    Great Family Fishing

    5 Hour Trip – Inshore Fishing • 5 adults • 2 children

    Good trip with light tackle catching reef fish and snapper. Crew was good with the children. A right balance between fishing and family.
