Two aunts and 2 children.
I have been on many walkin charters,  and this was by far the best. Everyone was catching and having a good time. They even set up poles to try and catch big fish. 
The deck hands were awesome!! They worked very hard to make sure we all had fun.
Unlike other walk on I have been on,  you were able to choose your own spot and were allowed to change it.
Please remember to tip your deck hands a minimum of 20%. They work so hard and that is how they get paid. Disappointingly we saw several who only tipped 5 to 10 dollars.

We had a great trip but one of our group ended up becoming seasick. The crew was so helpful and generous in helping out with water and advice. I couldn’t thank them enough for how caring they were. And we all caught a ton of fish! Our seasick crew mate is feeling much better with some dry land under his feet and fresh fried fish in his belly. Would definitely recommend!

This was my son and I’s first off shore fishing experience. The boat, equipment and amenities were good, there was nothing more we thought of that we needed to enjoy. The overall experience was fantastic! Captain put us on some good fishing spots and the whole boat caught a lot of fish. Dennis, co-captain and guide, was great! His personality and demeanor is perfect for that part and with that crew and boat! Joe, Connor, TJ and Zack were the shipmates and were awesome! Zack was working our part of the boat and at the start of the trip I asked in conversation how long he had been with the boat. It was his second day! However, you would have never known it was, Zack was great! Very friendly and knew his stuff and worked very hard making sure we and everyone around us had all we needed the whole trip. As did all 3 of the other mates that I witnessed. After experiencing this trip, going off shore fishing will now be a “MUST” on our family beach vacations and we will not even think about going anywhere else but Pelican Adventures for it! Thanks again to Pelican and the crew of the Vera Marie for making the trip a memorable one!

Due to small turnout trip turned into a 25 person shared catch trip. This was at no extra cost to me and worked out well in that I was not all that successful. It takes getting used to the bite and technique of gulf bottom fishing with circle hooks. This is the perfect learning trip for the novice or refresher for those that have not been out for a while. The shared catch trip is the way to go because you will come home with fish without sneakin of to fish shop. Great way to go and a great crew.
