    Trip: Socal Bass Fishing Trip

  • ★★★★★
    My son and I booked a trip with Kevin's team through Captain Experiences. Our captain out of Long Beach was Jeremy. He was fun, knowledgeable, and genuinely excited to be on the water. We did a half day trip which was more than great. My 14 year old son had a blast. I would do it all over again without a doubt.

    Trip: 6 Hour Local Lobster Hooping

  • ★★★★★
    Jermeys Son Jackson was a solid captain and put us on all the target species for this time of the season. Our first mate Ed was also great and showed my 8yr son a lot of attention. (Which is slightly on the spectrum) The booking service also showed there colors by offering to discount our trip after learning that I am a disabled veteran.
