We had a great time. Very knowledgeable and capable guide. Fishing can be tough and there was a lot of pressure from other people. We moved several times to stay on the fish and Capt. Bobby seemed to alway know exactly where to find them. We caught a lot including snook, trout, and redfish. Highly recommend, kid friendly, quality boat and equipment.
