Fished under birds and caught back to back Trout all morning that were just undersized. Jay knew we wanted keepers so we kept fishing till we got on a sand Trout honey hole. Captain Jay was kind enough to extend our...

I actually fished with Jay. I had a wonderful time learning a new area and new (to me) techniques. The fishing was slow, but that was out of his control, and immaterial. That’s why they call it fish8ng, and not catching. I was very impressed with Jay’s knowledge of the area and of fishing. I would definitely book him again.
