We were not even off the dock upon our return before my kids were asking me to go again. Captain Mike took us to several different fishing spots and we reeled in over 40 fish during our outing. His equipment for us was great and had plenty of bait and rigs to accommodate us. (Even when my 9 year old got tangled and snagged a few times.) Mike answered all 3000 questions my kids brought to him and made sure they were hooked. As I write this, we have our second charter already booked and can't wait to get on the water again with Nev-R-Enuf

We brought in a rod and he set my son up with bait, the right hooks, sinker and some kind of set up in the line and told us where to go for fishing and crabbing. It turned out the line my son had on his rod was dry rotted and we lost the line. We then went back a second time got it relined and new hook and set up on it and back we went.

I expressed my disappointment to which Christian, he owners son, said this is all we have. It took me 45 minutes to get to the Stone Harbor bridge. The tiny motor could barely push the boat against the outgoing tide. And that was with only two passengers not the full capacity of 10. At full speed, it made no wake. Upon arriving at my dock, I called and said this isn't right. This motor is way under powered for this boat. The only option offered was to return the boat. But I had a number of friends and family already lined up for a ride. Not going back to Dads. Beware of false advertising.

My friend and I went on the 4-hour afternoon fishing trip yesterday after finding a deal on…read moreGroupon, and I had such a great time. This was my very first fishing charter, so I was really excited for some deep-sea fishing--and Starfish Boats definitely lived up to the reviews I had read beforehand. The mate, Anthony, was the star of the show. He works for tips, and you should absolutely tip him because he is your best friend out there. From the moment we got on the boat, he was helping with everything--setting up the poles, putting the bait on for the first cast, walking around checking in on everyone, and jumping in whenever someone needed help. He made the whole experience so much easier and way more fun. At one point, I hooked something really big--probably a shark--but my rod couldn't handle it. Anthony quickly cut the line, set me up with a new pole, and got me right back to fishing. I ended up catching a little baby bluefish. My friend didn't catch anything this time, but plenty of people around us were reeling things in: bluefish, flounder, and even baby sharks. So you're definitely going to catch something out here! The trip itself was well-organized: about an hour ride out to the fishing spot, then we moved three or four times to drop lines before the hour ride back, giving us roughly two solid hours of fishing. Everything ran smoothly. The only downside for me was the number of people on the boat and some kids running around who clearly weren't into fishing--it got a little distracting. But I get it, families want to bring their kids along for the experience. Next time I might try a trip with fewer people for a quieter vibe. Overall, I give Starfish Boats five stars. Great crew, well-run trip, and an awesome first experience with a fishing charter. I'd definitely go out with them again.

Everyone was very friendly and we really enjoyed the few hours we were out on the boat. Would definitely take another trip with this company in the future.

It was my aunts 70th birthday we had planned on doing some fishing and crabbing but unfortunately when we arrived the owner or worker maybe came out of the door hooting and hollering about our intentions with the boat. He was told we had plenty of bait, crab traps and fishing poles, he continued to berate my entire family as if we wouldn't abide by the rules of the boat. Ultimately he started cursing and telling us our trip is canceled and walked away. ABSOLUTELY WORST customer service I've ever experienced. I wouldn't recommend this place on my enemy.
