What a great experience! Scott was outgoing, a supportive teacher/coach, great w my 13u son, and super knowledgeable. Honestly I would have been perfectly fine catching some small fish so my kid could have some fun, but Scott found some great spots in the Bay and upped the ante right away. My son hooked into some trout and didn’t stop catching 6-7 about 2-3lbs each. It was fun. One one occasion I put down my pole to video my son catching a fish and just then I had a big hit on my own line and guess what? My pole went into the water- gone!  I felt terrible about it as it was completely my fault. The trip could have ended badly right there- and of course I insisted and paid for the replacement for lost rod. Scott was very cool about it all and we went on to one last spot. And wow- we found a very active plave. With his chumming technique exciting the fish we hooked into several large snook. My son had a blast trying to reel in the hard fighting snook (10lb+) and Scott coached him thru the entire process. I felt like Scott was really happy to see my kid happy catching a fish. It was very cool. He is excellent w kids no doubt.
We kept two trout and released the rest- grouper, snook, trout, and one more that I can’t t call the name. Afterwards Scott recommended a local place where we could take out fish to be prepared for dinner. We did just that and of course it was amazing. It was the freshest fish my son has ever eaten. He loved it- and he doesnt even really like fish to begin with. Afterwards he proudly sent photos to his mom back home and told her that he has an awesome time.
Thank you Captain Scott for a great time and thank you for being cool about the lost rod/reel. It was a lot of fun and I highly recommend the experience!
