Captain Mike was early, ready, and welcoming, so the trip started off great. I told him I wanted to catch fish until my kids felt like they had been in a fight, in a phone booth. (For those that remember what one of those is.) We started off at a couple of spots that were less than action-packed so Capt. Mike changed areas quickly to put us on fish. We started small but had fun putting mostly Trout and Reds in the boat. Not once did I have to unhook a fish and Capt. Mike had bait on our hooks in seconds whenever it was needed.
As Capt. Mike explained, we were going to end the trip big….and we ended the trip big, and getting bigger everytime my son recounts the dasterdly details of his personal “White Whale,” the dreaded Black Tip shark! (I have told him it is his stary, but I will correct his blurry details every time, unless he started the story with, “My name is Ishmael.”)
Capt. Mike cared enough about our experience to stay later than called for to let my son fight his shark until he (eventually) landed it next to the boat.
We will be booking additional trips in the future! (Afterall, it’s not over with the shark.) Capt. Mike seemed like a really good guy personally, he cared about his business and the customer’s experience, and we look forward to booking more trips soon!
