Marty was awesome. Extremely knowledgeable. We were all novices, but he took his time. Explained what he was doing, where we were, had some awesome stories to tell. Our guide also cancelled on us, and Marty was assigned to us by the site. I called to cancel because he was over an hour drive away, but he came to pick us up for a little gas money. What an

Marty was great! He told us exactly what to expect from the water conditions and the possibility of a rough ride. We didn't think it was too rough at all. He was very knowledgeable about the area and the types of fish we could expect to catch and how to catch them! We all had a great time and would totally book with Marty again. Thank you for helping us make fun memories!

Our originally scheduled time fell through because the fishing conditions were not optimal. Marty was upfront that it was too windy to catch any fish even though he said he would still honor our original reservation if we chose to do that. We were able to re-schedule until the next afternoon and thoroughly enjoyed our trip, catching several Spanish mackerel. We enjoyed some of Marty's fish tales while we were out...
