Captain Lou, thank you for an awesome fishing trip. The boat is brand new and the captain keeps it immaculate. Captain Lou made sure my son i laws and my self were comfortable the whole trip and despite we couldn’t get to the south side because of 5’ waves he put us on the fish all day. The fishing equipment is top notch and the bonus feature enjoyed by my son in laws were the cup holders next to each rod holder. 👍👍👍

Looked for a charter and came across Giana Helena and Capt Lou. We are very fortunate to have found him. Captain Lou and his first mate Jeff are not only fun and accommodating to your needs, they are extremely knowledgeable of the fish in their area. We had a fantastic trip with them and limited out on striped bass mainly because of Captain Lou.  I 100% will book with him when we go back out to Montauk next time.

Had a very great trip catching our limit for striped bass, also caught and released some huge 40 plus pounders. Action from start to finish. Thank you Captain Lou for the fantastic day, you we’re a pleasure to have as our guide to the best fishing around! By the way, his boat Gianna Helena is a serious fishing machine, don’t pass it up.

Capt Lou knows all the spots, sets you up for success and gives exceptional customer service. He is very attentive, anticipated every need and created a perfect experience. I planned this fishing trip for my dad’s birthday and we had a blast. Caught and released over 25 fish, 4 species, and kept a few for a fish taco lunch. Would 100% recommend him and the Gianna Helena for anyone looking to have a guided fishing expedition out of Montauk!

The experience on Board the Gianna Helena Was second to none.  I’ve been fishing for over 40 years and have been on many charters and found Capt Lou to be the best I’ve encountered.  He was extremely accommodating, friendly and respectful to the whole party.  The boat and fishing tackle was clean, comfortable and top notch.  I understand the fact that we had an epic day catching fish was also due to the weather conditions, tides and overall great timing, Capt Lou knew exactly where to put us and maximized our fishing experience.  I have faith that even in tougher conditions, the Capt will put his years of experience to use and put you on fish.  I highly recommend this captain and boat if your planning on fishing in montauk.
