I went out fishing with my two sons, and Captain Dustin was fantastic with them. We caught more fish than we could keep track of! I’m already looking forward to our next trip with them.

We went in with no expectations and two new anglers in our group, yet we had an amazing day. The captain seemed a bit disappointed we didn’t catch many keepers, but we were just focused on enjoying the experience and following his expert advice. I highly recommend Sea Dawgs!

We originally booked the trip just for me and my son, but last minute my wife and daughter decided to join—and we all caught fish throughout the entire trip! We even landed several large sharks that gave us such an incredible fight, we were sore the next day. Whether you’re an experienced angler or new to fishing, Joey and Linda make sure everyone has an amazing time. We’ll definitely be coming back!
