The youngest guy in the picture of three was 81 years old. I hope I'm as blessed as they are to still be able to do what I love to do at their age.

    Captain Steve was excellent. He moved our fishing location to get better results. He was on time, friendly and knowledgable. He was great with my 2 grandkids, 8 and 10. We didn't catch much edible fish but caught quite a few others - 5 species in total. I would recommend Captain Steve and would choose him again if the occasion arises.

    Capt Hunter was great! He was prepped and ready to go for a 2 hr trip and we were immediately catching fish. We had 3 tween girls with us and he made it easy, enjoyable and educational. They had a blast and enjoyed their catch for dinner that night!
