Ratings & Reviews Summary
June 13, 2025
We've checked out the inlet and it was beyond ruff. Fished all throughout the sound side. Captain Hank did his best to bring us to different spots and be able to have a nice catch! We highly recommend him. He was easy to deal with, everything was a breeze from booking up to the day of the trip. We will definitely be back and book him again!

We caught a number of King Mackerel and made our six fish limit in four hours. He was truly professional and was able to put us in the right spots to fight with big-game fish. I will definitely book Captain Hank again. Guaranteed fun and safe charters! I would highly recommend spending a day on the water with Captain Hank

We had a blast! He was so good at handling two 12-year-olds who are new to fishing. He was very patient and explained everything to them very well. Thanks, Captain! See you again!
