We all had a great time with Tristan and his crew! These guys are awesome! We unfortunately didn't get a fish, but that's fishing. They had some fun beach games to play and we all had a great time together! Definitely will be back with Tristan!

We didn't get a hit, but learned about the process and had a great time. Tristan and Corbit were great. There may have been a snag with the booking and guide schedule coordination, but Tristan resolved the double booking glitch. Booking agent was unable to answer basic questions about the trip, but better information with call back.

The sharks didn’t cooperate on our trip but that was no fault of Tristan and Benny. They are some good dudes and we enjoyed talking with them. They tried hard, just wasn’t in the cards for us that evening. We’ll try it again next time we’re in town.

Went out there and hooked onto a monster. About 15 people watched us fight that monster for 35-40 minutes till it popped loose and a bunch of them were all shark fisherman who agreed that it was huge.

Never got to finally bring him in, but tristan was knowledge, personable, well equipped with the proper gear, and an overall really good guide to use.

I’d definitely use him again👍🏼

Did a half day trip with Tristan, and was thoroughly impressed. Very quick and efficient with set up and getting baits out. We caught 2 nice sharks and had a few more on. Tristan takes the time he needs to with less experienced anglers and gets them where they need to be. Very effective communicator when asked questions. The best guided experience I’ve had.
