Fishing with Captain Clint was a blast !! Captain Clint was courteous, professional, knowledgeable and most importantly he was present. If you have ever been offshore fishing on the big 50 foot+ dead rise boats you know you talk to and see the captain first thing in the morning and then he goes up top and you don't hear from him again until the trip is over. Fishing with Captain Clint is a MUCH MORE enjoyable experience because he is shoulder to shoulder with you the entire trip. He shares his experience, knowledge, tackle and bait set-up and facts about the history of the waters you are fishing. Captain Clint took myself, two of my buddies and one of their 17 year old daughters. He put us guys on some serious red snapper and grouper and put the young lady on lighter tackle catching triggerfish. This was a perfect set up for both genders. We were all tickled with our experience with Captain Clint and Reel McCoy Sportfishing !! 5 stars for sure !! Trent Mehlbrech Old Church, Virginia
