    Captain Alek was awesome. He took us to great spots and we caught a ton of fish. Very knowledgeable and friendly. When we came back he prepped all of our fish for us so we could have feast later than night. Great experience!

    Anthony is the man! He was very accommodating and went out of his way to make sure we were taken care of. We started the day off "running and gunning" for Mahi but didn't find much out there (it happens) so we pivoted to something more insure. We got some beasts! Great eating too! So much fun 10/10 will do again
