My 15yo son and I showed up with no equipment and NO know-how either. 😆

Eugene and his wife and partner Jackie (7 months pregnant and still fishing like a champ) are both experts and a pair of absolute BEAUTY human beings! They were very patient and kind with their instructions and they shared knowledge freely. We had a fantastic time and I could not recommend them strongly enough. We caught more fish than I even hoped for, and I will definitely book with them again in the future. They are well versed in all fishery regulations as well and will keep you legal too.

Personal note: I need to bring a bigger cooler for all the fish next time!!

Their patient approach to instruction bears mentioning a second time - my son and I were a bit nervous and uncertain at first but their kind and welcoming nature made us feel comfortable very quickly.
They had so much fun teaching my son they offered him a job! LOL
They take younger kids too if you are looking for a charter for the whole family.

Also, if it matters to you (it does to me) their boat is VERY professionally outfitted for charter fishing. But - word to the wise - you might want to buy a boat like theirs afterwards lololol !!! Sign up with Tip’s Up! You will not regret it.
