Great boat and even though didnot catch anyfish (dec 2010) was not lack of effort. Boat is clean,in great shape, ad well mantained.Gear is as good as it gets. Tony is very easy to talk to and great to be around. Never fished with nicer captain and crew. Will never have a more honest fishing trip. More

What a treat to go deep sea fishing with this crew!! Tony & JD were very friendly & informative. My dad caught a 15-pound tuna, which Tony expertly cleaned & filleted for us. The boat was in tip-top condition with state-of-the art fishing gear. I had high expectations after reading all the positive reviews, and was not disappointed!! Mahalo! More

My husband and I went out fishing with Capt. Tony and Scott for a half day tour. It was great! They were laid back and easygoing, capable of teaching and doing simultaneously. Our first bite was an Ahi and my sweet husband let me take it, as I am really the fisherwoman of the family. While Tony expertly handled the... More

Thanks to Captain Tony and the crew I had my "Best Day of the Year" onboard the Legend. It started with a fresh breakfast burrito cooked and served at sea accompanied by beverages of our choice. In less than two hours i was harnessed in the chair reeling in a 130+ pound marlin. The instructions from the crew were just... More

my wife and I have been on several fishing charters with varying degrees of satisfaction. they generally produce a nice tan but no fish. The Legend was a dramatic departure from our previous experiences. We each caught a beautiful Mahi Mahi which the crew prepared for our later enjoyment. We will definitely be back onboard the Legend!

We had an awesome experience with Legend Sportfishing! Captain Tony and the crew were amazing, the food tasted like it came from a resort rather than a small ship’s galley, and we caught, not one, but two, 120+ pound marlins during our trip. Wow! We would highly recommend Legend Sportfishing! More
