We had such an amazing experience fishing with Captain David Stump. We had along our two boys, 7 and 9, and Captain was so awesome and patient with helping them fish and showing them what to do. It was a windy day and he powered through it with us and made it so much fun! We would recommend Salty Day Fishing!
