Everything about our trip was outstanding! The boat, the Captian, Captain Carlson was fantastic. He wanted fish for every one of us on the boat even more than we wanted to catch! He worked so hard to load the boat and that we did!!! One of the best charters I have even been one. We all can’t wait to come back again and do it all over again!

Second Generation fisherman Rob was absolutely the best. He knew where to go close to the Harbor to put us on the fish. Highly recommended.

We had an absolutely unforgettable day on the water with Captain Mason! Our family of six—ranging from more "seasoned" to children—was treated to a private fishing excursion that truly exceeded all expectations.

From the moment we stepped on the boat, the Mason made us feel completely at ease. He was incredibly accommodating, making sure each of us was comfortable, engaged, and having a great time. Whether it was adjusting for the kids' needs, helping with baiting...

We had an absolutely unforgettable day on the water with Captain Mason! Our family of six—ranging from more "seasoned" to children—was treated to a private fishing excursion that truly exceeded all expectations.

From the moment we stepped on the boat, the Mason made us feel completely at ease. He was incredibly accommodating, making sure each of us was comfortable, engaged, and having a great time. Whether it was adjusting for the kids' needs, helping with baiting
hooks, or offering fishing tips to the beginners among us, his patience and positive energy never wavered.

What stood out the most was how safe and inclusive he made the entire experience. Every member of the family felt like part of the crew. He kept a watchful eye on everything while still creating a laid-back, fun atmosphere. We never once felt rushed or out of place—just fully present and enjoying every moment.

He also went above and beyond in every possible way—from extending our time a bit when the fish were biting to showing us local wildlife and secret spots only a seasoned pro would know. It truly felt like a one-of-a-kind adventure curated just for us.

Highly recommend this charter to anyone looking for a fun, family-friendly, and expertly guided day on the water. Can’t wait to book again next time we’re in town!
