Captain kept us on the fish all day long. Many first timers on the trip: captain and crew made them feel welcome, stayed positive and made it a fantastic trip. Recommend for all experience levels, especially first timers.

Very good at getting on the fish. Always right there when fish came up and kept bait flowing and didn’t miss a beat all day. We are all glad we chose this boat. Nothing could have been better.
