I've booked multiple fishing charters with Captain Hillary and have consistently returned with a nice haul. Some trips are more fruitful than others, but it's always enjoyable chasing down the fish. I highly recommend and regularly refer all my friends and family members to book with him.

Captain Steve arrived promptly and prepared, as promised, and wasted no time in putting us on the fish! This ranks among the best fishing guide experiences I've encountered in SPI. I will definitely aim to book with Steve again on future visits. Thanks, Capt!

Thank you so much Captain Steven. What a great experience with some knowledgeable kind. Great day of fishing. If you want to be put on fish this is your guy.

Captain Steve goes above and beyond in maintaining his equipment, exceeding expectations. His rods, reels, and boat showcase his dedication to his craft. While my personal reels are reliable, the ones on his boat are exceptionally smooth, as if brand new. When I inquired, he explained that he dismantles and cleans the reels after every trip. Now, that's what I call a truly committed captain. Bravo!
