Response from Stephen:
Sorry you are unhappy with your trip but 4 hour trips are trolling only and we troll 4 rods at a time if you have 20 people in your group we will only troll 4 rods still at one time and the day you came out it was 6 foot seas off shore so we trolled inshore along with 5 other boats that was doing the same thing but it does say trolling thrills.

Sorry you are unhappy with your trip but 4 hour trips are trolling only and we troll 4 rods at a time if you have 20 people in your group we will only troll 4 rods still at one time and the day you came out it was 6 foot seas off shore so we trolled inshore along with 5 other boats that was doing the same thing but it does say trolling thrills. I highly recommend doing a 6 hour trip or an 8 hour trip more fun for everyone have a blessed day.

Response from Captain Experiences:
Hey Donnie, we're sorry to hear that the trip didn't live up to expectations. There are no guarantees in fishing but its always a letdown when the fish aren't biting the way you hope they will. When trolling you generally do not have a rod in for every customer, but rather a good spread that fits what you're targeting for the day, so 4 rods is by no means unusual nor does it decrease your...

Hey Donnie, we're sorry to hear that the trip didn't live up to expectations. There are no guarantees in fishing but its always a letdown when the fish aren't biting the way you hope they will. When trolling you generally do not have a rod in for every customer, but rather a good spread that fits what you're targeting for the day, so 4 rods is by no means unusual nor does it decrease your chances of fish. I appreciate the opportunity we had to discuss this matter privately and provide you with a substantial coupon for a future trip. Looking forward to assisting you in planning the ideal family experience on your next visit.

First Time Booking with Us?

Captain Experiences is the home of over 1500 Damn Good fishing and hunting guides. Our mission is to unlock the outdoors for everyone, and we want to help you get out there through our no-hassle online booking experience and our team of outdoors experts.
We vet our guides to make sure they are the best of the best. We want guides who not only put you on 'em, but show you a great time, keep you safe, and give you a memorable experience with your group.
Once you've paid your deposit at checkout, we'll send you a boarding pass. Just show your guide your boarding pass on the day of the trip, they'll scan it, the remaining balance will transfer automatically, and you'll be all set to get out there. Just make sure you bring a cash tip for the guide!
In the case of inclement weather, our guides will make the call and we'll work with you to reschedule your trip or issue a credit for the full deposit of the trip to be used on any of our trips across the country. Your safety is our top concern.
Each trip’s price is set by the guide and factors in all of their costs. A big determinant of cost is often the type of boat and associated fuel costs, but other guide costs include leases, marina / slip fees, bait costs, and the cost to provide and maintain all of the gear you’ll need on your trip.
Once you book the trip, we will connect you directly with the guide to go over any additional details. In the meantime, our team is always available to answer your questions via email, text, chat, or call!
