    Excellent -Apart from the Fish!

    Captain Andrew was great for our fishing charter. Booking online was easy, and I got follow up emails/texts with helpful info. When weather looked like it might by questionable he called a day in advance to warn us. The fishing itself was fun, everyone on...More

    July 2017 Fishing Trip

    We had an awesome time fishing with Captain Andrew and his deck hand Sammi. Both were very knowledgeable. The fish were scarce that day, but we all had a great time listening to stories and hanging out waiting for the fish to bite. Great time....More

    Twilight fishing produced more memories than fish but still great.

    Captain Mike and the "The Great Gatsby" boat were both fantastic. We took a dusk fishing trip that started at 4pm. We returned back to the marina after sunset at about 7:45pm. From start to finish Capt Mike was happy, friendly, talkative and knowledgable about...More

    Not the greatest fishing but great boat & crew

    Very disappointing. Charter cost $480 ($120 each for 4 people) plus $60 each for a fishing license ($15 each for 4 people) and did not catch ANY fish with the exception of one small kokanee salmon the size of a minnow, weighing about one pound...More
