Aaron is a lights out captain. Goes the extra mile and is funny and keeps things light and fun. My boys and I celebrated my birthday with 2 of the biggest reds of his season which was an awesome experience! Highly recommended.

We had a great day on the water. The bite was tough but Billy still got us some fish and we had a blast. We fished a lot of different spots and techniques all day. Will definitely book with Billy again when we come back.

Best fishing experience we’ve ever had. Chris was wonderful with the kids and so nice and easy to talk to. He was fantastic and our day was very special! He maneuvered around the storms and put us on fish all day!

Captain Aaron was awesome! He got us on fish all day. He was extremely knowledgeable and knows where to get you on fish. Safety is his top priority. I would highly recommend Aaron for anyone looking to catch fish in the area.

I got the impression that the mate was newer deckhand. The mate did well but obviously had a few things to learn. Sorry I forgot his name. As for our captain, instead of the captain jumping in and helping the mate, he was too busy fishing himself. They both basically got lost in what they were doing instead of putting the clients first. Overall we had a good experience and reeled up plenty of fish.
