Richard was great! He was on top of the fish, baiting our poles and getting us unstuck Everytime we got caught on the rocks.
He filleted our fish for us and even let my wife listen to her crappy music.
Five stars!

Rick was amazing, was extremely punctual and had everything we needed for a great trip. Even though the weather was not great he still knew where to put us on fish and have a great experience. He was kind and all over what we needed. An amazing captain that I highly recommend to anyone!

Overall the trip with Richard was excellent. My party arrived at the prescribed time and Richard already had the boat off the ramp and in the water. We loaded out stuff and off we went. The trip to the spot he selected took about an hour to arrive. He kept the hooks baited and provided suggestions and helped our youngest (11 yo) to hook fish and bring them it. Richard...

The trip to the spot he selected took about an hour to arrive. He kept the hooks baited and provided suggestions and helped our youngest (11 yo) to hook fish and bring them it. Richard had a great selection of live and frozen bait that worked very well. Of the four of us each pulled in at least two fish with some getting more. Good selection pulled in with at least 4 different breeds of fish being kept which Richard prepared for us after we arrived. Well worth the money spent. The captain became a friend.

I would highly recommend getting on Captain Rick's boat for a fun day of big game fishing. Offers drinks om the boat. Filet, clean, and bag our catch.
Next time we get back to the area, he will be our first choice for our next charter.
Thank you, Captain Rick. Till next time!
