Weather wasn't great, rained twice, not their fault. The captain did call around looking for better spots but nothing came up. But this was not a shark fishing trip. It was basically like jug lining for catfish but for shark. Put bait out on buoys and circle around them while trolling with lures until something was hooked. There was 1 sand shark landed but it was protected, so, couldn't keep it. If I would've known that we were not actually going to be fishing I would not have booked the trip and went for something a heck of a lot cheaper. Also, the tip to the deck hand was mandatory at 20%, so, the trip didn't cost $1,000 it was $1,200. The captain and deckhand were friendly and seemed like good guys but not at all what we expected in a shark fishing trip.

Response from Captain Experiences:

Hey Cody, we’re sorry to hear the trip didn’t meet your expectations. It sounds like the approach to shark fishing wasn’t what you had in mind, and we understand your frustration with the setup and not being able to keep the one shark that was caught. We also apologize for the confusion around the tip being mandatory— we do share via text and email that 20% tip is recommended, but we apologize for any confusion....

We did not have the experience that we had hoped and planned for. We felt like the ad for the adventure was not what it was listed. We did not fish for species listed and boat was not ready for us when we arrived. We had added two hours to our trip, but ended up spending this time in travel and waiting versus actually fishing. Not a great adventure for adults or children. The price was very costly for the experience we received. Did not want to leave a bad review, but wanted to let others know that this trip was very expensive for the outcome we had.
