Not impressed with the captain
Julien_S
, Apr 2022
We went on a half day fishing tour 4/27/22 am and were surprised to hear the crass language the captain was using. It was a very rough day on the ocean and we only caught a few non edible fish. We were pushed to tip the crew with “20’s and 50’s” which we didn’t realize to bring. Also we’re told by the captain that we lost a lot of fish at the last spot we tried since we didn’t know how to fish (seriously?? Wasn’t he supposed to teach us?” The 3 other crew were helpful and polite. They should get paid more so we don’t have to tip as much! And had no fish to bring home……

Huge disappointment
Megan_Y
, Apr 2022
I showed up to this fishing trip with high hopes after reading all of the positive reviews! Our trip, however, was an absolute failure. The ride out was nice, but once we were anchored down, the tides were so choppy, there was no touching the fishing pole without keeping a tight grip on something the entire time. The boat was rocking so hard, a window fell out behind the guy next to me and he had to hold it up as we yelled for crew members. A young boy on the other side of me almost went flying off, into the water. His dad swooped him and asked for a life jacket. He wasn’t given one. None of us were— which I feel should have at least been optional in these conditions. People were falling, a lady was sliding around after falling on the floor of the boat like a ping pong ball in a dress. People left and right of me were rushing to and from the rail to puke. The sounds of gagging were EVERYWHERE. Children were covered from face to feet in puke. People were bumping into another. Yes, even the children who, again, had puke on them. I don’t even get motion sickness and I took some medicine for it just in case and I still yacked my guts out for hours. Just when I thought I couldn’t get sick anymore, I got sick again. Some people just stayed hanging over the edge. The loud speaker was terrible quality, but you could still hear the captain yell for people to stop getting sick on his vessel. It was very apparent we were MISERABLE. I didn’t see anybody even able to fish besides a few in the back, because that was the least of all our worries at the moment. After multiple people asking for us to go back early, a woman with children talked to the crew members and they took a toll. SEVEN people out of 40-50? People did NOT want to go back. I overheard this woman offered to refund those seven guys their money so that we could go back after two hours instead of the four. It was that bad. I understand there were “no refunds.” But this was a BEGINNER’S fishing trip. We were supposed to learn something and receive advice on how to catch certain fish. There’s no way those seven guys who wanted to stay were beginners— which is great for them. That trip was so terrible, I was sick the rest of the day. We canceled our kayaking trip later that day with no refund because it was within 24 hours, and I didn’t even want to be at the beach looking at the water. My entire last day out of the only three days I got of my vaca was spent recovering my stomach from that disgusting experience. The least the crew could have done was give us a warning beforehand about the conditions of the water.

Pick a different company

While the tour company can not control the weather, the conditions were bad enough that the trip should have been cancelled. The crew was nice and friendly, but the captain was rude. We had passengers falling down and also getting sick because of the waves. He yelled over the speaker at people to stop getting sick on his vessel. So rude and unprofessional. The company considered this "normal" conditions. This was only normal for someone who does it daily and is used to it. They would rather leave the dock and put people in danger than give a refund.

Very disappointed, to many people on one side of boat, lines kept getting tangled, caught only about 10 fish for the whole group of about 20 people. Would not use this company again or refer it to friends.

Such a great day on the water! It’s hot so make sure to bring sunblock and cash for food/tip. The staff was amazing, and we caught some beautiful fish! They clean them for a small fee (make sure you tell them if you don’t want the fishy filleted). Overall a great day, will def book again.
Great vacation experience

We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
