On aug 15 my grandson and I went out for fishing day our captain was very friendly and made our day very special. He new we he the mackerel where we filled his live bait well never got so many mackerel. Then went right to a place that exactly where the stoppers were. My grandson an I landed about 9 strippers but only three where keepers. All in all probably the best experience. Thanks for the day

Captain Matt was great. Despite a questionable weather forecast he stuck with our booking and we ended up hitting a school of blues for one of the most exciting hours I've had in years. We had a ton of fun while we watched another boat struggle to get hooked up onto any fish. Appreciate that Captain Matt is prepared to adjust the plan to the bite. He clearly knows the local waters and the species.

Fantastic trip with Capt Matt in Gloucester yesterday. 5 Hour trip - and worth every penny. We pulled 15 Stripers out (and mackerel for live bait) - and landed in every spot he took us to. Highly recommend this Captain and boat.

We had a great time and the Captain did his best to make sure we hooked on. We caught one good fish, not big enough to keep though, and the rest were smaller mackerel. Still had a good day on the water
