Went out on a last minute trip with Prowler Fishing Charter for a bottom fishing trip. Immediately got on decent Black Sea bass while fishing wrecks. Later we headed even further offshore to target tilefish. We caught a limit of nice tilefish including one citation at 12.3 pounds. Great trip!

Captain Louis and first mate Nate gave us the fishing experience of a lifetime. They got us on the Spanish Mackerel and it was all hands on deck. It was a Mack attack. Best fishing trip ever!!!

The crew was absolutely fantastic! Maria made sure we all felt at ease and shared a wealth of knowledge about bay fishing techniques. Although the fish weren’t biting as much as we’d hoped, Captain Louis was incredibly accommodating, letting us experiment with various fishing methods to ensure we at least caught a few fish. In fact, they even stayed out longer than planned to give us one last chance at trolling. We truly appreciated their dedication and expertise throughout the trip!

The captain and crew went above and beyond to make our fishing trip special! The captain was incredibly customer-focused, even adjusting our departure time to fit our schedule. Our first mate was outstanding, providing a thorough pre-launch briefing, explaining the fishing gear and techniques, and helping us with our initial catches. Throughout the day, she kept us engaged with fascinating information about the local area, the fish we were targeting, and the boat itself. She also shared great tips on how to prepare and cook the fish we caught. Both the captain and the crew were friendly, knowledgeable, and dedicated to delivering top-notch service.
