Ratings & Reviews Summary
September 7, 2024
The captain was already prepared when we got there early. We had a great time talking and fishing while out on the water. The fishing boat is the perfect size for a small crowd. Thank you, Drew, without you neither of us would have managed to catch 14 fish.

The captain was at the top of his game TODAY! It was only a 4-hour trip with me and my father-in-law, and I'd say we did pretty dang fine.
