I took my three adult children out for a 3 hour fish in the lagoon, and Captain Jeff and his brother Jason were fantastic hosts. The fishing was slow but they did put us on some red snapper and everyone caught a few fish. They were very attentive and were great to us all. I would certainly recommend fishing with them. The boat was comfortable and I had no complaints. I will certainly look to fish with them again. I give them 5 stars. Thank you Jeff.
