Had such an amazing time! Kevin knows his fishing holes and how to hook em. Had a great time on the water laughing and reeling them in! Can't wait to go again.

We had a great time. Parker was very knowledgeable and clearly experienced with the local fishery. He gave me a crash course on forward facing sonar and we used it to catch a bunch of fish!

My son and I booked a trip with Kevin's team through Captain Experiences. Our captain out of Long Beach was Jeremy. He was fun, knowledgeable, and genuinely excited to be on the water. We did a half day trip which was more than great. My 14 year old son had a blast. I would do it all over again without a doubt.

My two teenaged sons absolutely loved this trip. They had the best day and loved the captain and said he had a very nice boat either way a downstairs room and bathroom.

Captain Harry is an excellent captain. I’d go out fishing with Captain Harry any day of the week. Very professional.

Trip: 6 Hour Local Lobster Hooping
★★★★★
Jermeys Son Jackson was a solid captain and put us on all the target species for this time of the season. Our first mate Ed was also great and showed my 8yr son a lot of attention. (Which is slightly on the spectrum) The booking service also showed there colors by offering to discount our trip after learning that I am a disabled veteran.

Harry and crew were so patient with my teenagers. This was our first time out on the sea. The boys had a blast! Harry made sure that everyone caught fish. Thank you again and I would highly recommend.
