Captain al is a great Captain! Came over from Australia to take my boy offshore. Could not be happier with the experience we had.

The fishing trip was a fun experience for the whole family. Capt. Al and his crew did a good job. While the fish were not very aggressive that day everyone caught some different species. All had a fun time.
