Recently spent a BEAUTIFUL day on the water with Captain Lance and BJ aboard the Rowe Boat! I highly recommend booking your trip immediately! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

May 29, 2025

We fished with Captain Rowe and BJ today and it couldn’t have been a better trip. They worked their butts off and wouldn’t stop until we found the fish. And when we found them, we really found them! Nothing better than taking 3 kids fishing and putting a limit in the box. The kids had a blast! I would highly recommend Rowe Boat Sportfishing and we most certainly will be back next year! Thanks for a great day!!
