Great people! Was very helping on the trip even with 3 kids. Always on point to keep bait on the line to keep the kids going! Very choppy but was all in all a great trip and do it again!

Response from Jim:
I am not sure what you are talking about maybe you stiffing us on the tip this is your way of trying to make it right in your mind. Your kids had a GREAT time and ended up with a ton of fish. After trip everyone including you shook our hands and said thanks for a great trip. But you want to leave this review. Enjoy your fish you have a bunch. Captain Jim

Response from Captain Experiences:
Hey Tonya, thanks for your feedback. We're glad to hear the fishing itself was great, but we're really sorry about the inappropriate language onboard. That’s absolutely not the kind of environment we want to provide, especially for families. We’ll be addressing this with Capt. Jim to ensure it doesn’t happen again. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and have reached out with a discount. We hope to provide a more family-friendly experience if...
