Captain is awesome we had a tough day but didn’t get skunked. I’ll be back for sure redemption on my mind perfect price and my dream boat

Every trip with John on C-Legs is a great one. I’ve gone out with him several times. He is a guy that LOVES to catch fish. With his extensive fishing knowledge, he puts people on the great fish of the Gulf Stream , tuna, wahoo, mahi and more. But on the occasional slow day he can shift gears and go to his honey holes nearer to shore where black bass and other tasty fish congregate. It’s always a fun trip on this fast, immaculately maintained boat.
