    Three Pointer at the Buzzer

    Half Trip (PM) – Inshore4 adults

    What a day! It all started with good conditions all along the coastline for Striped Bass. Calm waters presented numerous good spots with even some hits but no fish in the boat after several hours. Then an unexpected storm stirred up the water creating less than desirable conditions. With a little more than an hour left Captain Dan went into fast and furious mode hitting several spots as we went back toward shore. But still no fish. As we entered the harbor to end the trip Dan had one last play: fishing underneath a pier minutes away from docking. All of a sudden,when hope was really fading, bingo!! A 14-pound keeper emerged from the waters to save the day thanks to Dan's determination. A great shot with no time left on the clock. What a day!!

    Thanks for being such a great crew on a slower afternoon! I'm glad we finally found some action to cap off such a pleasant trip and one to take home for dinner to boot! Thanks again and hope to see you all again next time you're out this way. All the best, Cpt Dan

    Perfect day on the water

    Half Trip (AM) – Inshore2 adults

    My son and I had a beautiful sunny calm day fishing on the water with Captain Dan. We went to a few different spots before we got our first bite, but Capt Dan neber gave up and was motivated by finding us a spot where the fish were biting. Did he ever?!!After that, every cast we attempted, hooked us a big striper. So much fun! Thanks Capt Dan for making great memories for my son and me.

    Literally best experience ever!

    Half Trip (AM) – Inshore2 adults

    I booked this trip mostly for my dad as he loves to go fishing. I didn’t expect much from this experience but Captain Daniel was amazing! He made the experience very enjoyable and made sure I also caught a fish. He helped me with the equipment and showed me tricks. We caught plenty of mackerels and two huge striped bass! My dad and I can’t wait to go back. Highly recommend!

    Great trip!

    Half Trip (PM) – Inshore3 adults2 children

    Captain was awesome! He worked hard to keep us busy. the Bass fishing was slow, but we had a great time catching mackerel and pollock. My son asked captain Daniel if he had lobster traps and the captain took us to check all his traps. He let my son pull the traps and take out the lobsters. He showed him how to determine if the lobsters were keepers and how to band the claws. It made my dons dat. pous he let us keep the lobsters! we will definitely be back!
