Ratings & Reviews Summary

My son, an avid fisherman, and I had limited time and budget, so we booked a 2-hour morning shark trip. Although the sharks weren't biting, Captain Colin quickly adapted and took us trolling, where we began catching mackerel. It turned out to be a fantastic trip with an excellent captain.

We took our two sons, aged 6 and 12, on the 2-hour shark fishing trip, and their excitement was palpable. We hoped they’d each catch at least one shark, but they ended up catching over 20! Captain Walter was exceptional, making the experience unforgettable. We highly recommend this trip to everyone and can’t wait to return!

We began our 4-hour nearshore fishing trip at 6 AM. The start was a bit slow, but after checking two oil rigs with no success, the captain took us to a third spot where we finally hooked into some excellent Spanish mackerel. Once the bite slowed, we revisited an earlier rig and found more Spanish mackerel and some king mackerel. It turned into a great experience and created lasting memories for our kids.

We booked on short notice, and Nicole promptly answered all our questions. Captain Colin quickly located the fish and shared his knowledge about the local area.

We had an amazing time! My son, who is passionate about fishing, was thrilled with how Captain Colin ensured we caught plenty of fish. Even my parents, who have never fished or been on a boat before, had a fantastic experience. With great music and positive vibes throughout, it was a memorable outing. Highly recommended, and we definitely plan to do it again!
