No fish for 8 hour private charter

Unfortunate that I rented a private 8 hour charter boat and caught absolutely nothing- not even a BITE. $1500 down the drain. Captain and deck hands were great, however. But an expensive day cruise was not what we were looking for. Felt we were wandering...More

Disappointing

We didn’t catch anything and that’s okay because there are no guarantees but there was absolutely no talking from any of these guys unless we asked them a question. It was the most boring fishing trip I’ve ever been on and my first time never...More

Thank S7254RClauras

We understand your disappointment not catching, but that is fishing, that day there were no bites, the next day they caught Mahi Mahi and today we brought in a 728 lb. Blue Marlin. Every day is different. As far as the boredom factor, that's a...More

A great experience

We were treated amazingly by captain John and deckhand Josh. A beautiful sunrise trip that hooked us up on a Mahi Mahi. The guys were so kind and knowledgeable. We would definitely go again if we had time.
