The captain was highly knowledgeable and had a strong network of local fishermen to gather insights. Some of the sturgeon were massive and gave an incredible fight. It was an awesome day on the water!

August 29, 2025

My 14-year-old son and I joined Billy for a half-day trip on June 8th, and we had an amazing time. My son caught several sturgeon, making it a fantastic experience! If the fish weren’t biting in one spot, Billy quickly moved us to another where they were. I highly recommend this trip!

August 29, 2025

Due to current regulations, we couldn’t keep any fish, but we landed 20 sturgeon!

August 29, 2025

BJ was incredibly knowledgeable and easygoing! Although the fishing was challenging that day, he went above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable experience. When the fish weren’t biting, he generously let us take home some delicious crabs, which he even prepared and delivered to us! We’re so grateful for this amazing day!

August 29, 2025

Excellent local knowledge of the best fishing spots!

August 29, 2025

Thank you, Billy! It was an amazing trip.
