Captain Blake was amazing, he put us on big fish early in the morning and we caught fish the entire time we were out. He was super patient with my 9 year old grandson and 83 year old father. We caught some really big Reds, 2 of which we had to tag, lots of drum including the 2 trophies we had to catch and release of 32 & 40 inches. He will be our Captain...

We had a great day out on the water with Michael. In less than ideal water and wind conditions he worked hard to put us on fish and we ended up with a nice catch of trout, redfish and flounder (and caught quite few more fish below the limit). They were really accommodating when it came to changing dates due to weather and the location for easy pick up... I will use them...
