We had a great time with Captain Rick, Although that morning, the water was kinda rough. When the conditions were working against us, he would find us another fishing hole and we’d catechism more. It was hot, but overall a great day with family and friends. 10/10 recommend these guys for your fishing trips, Captain Rick has an extremely nice boat and he knows the waters well. Logan was awesome and knowledgeable as well
