Great for a family day of fishing! - Took my kids fishing (12,15,18), they don't have much fishing experience but Bradey was awesome and was very helpful, so much so that we limited out on Black Drum inside 90 minutes. He put us right on the fish and we all had a blast!

Father’s Day Fishing - Had a wonderful trip. Our guide Choppo was phenomenal. We enjoyed a great day on the boat on our father days excursion. They even had the option to fillet and cook the fish caught on site. Which we definitely chose which was a great option for lunch.

Brady was kind and made a... - Brady was kind and made a good effort to try to find the fish when we went out. We were disappointed that the fishing was no good and the water was rough. It was too windy. We also weren’t told that the first day we booked would be canceled due to wind until after 9 PM when we made multiple efforts to contact them. We spent extra money and time on fishing license for the day when we didn’t go. The communication should have been better.
