A mixed bag here. The whale watch I went on wasn't very fruitful. There were only a handful of…read morewhales and no dolphins. And the whales that we did we see weren't very close. Apparently, there was a school of tuna close by, and the whales were feeding on them below the water according to the shipmates. Now, that isn't exactly something within their control, and it's not like I was expecting the whales and/or dolphins to pose for pictures. Nonetheless, I was hoping for a little better of an experience. It's about a 4.5-hour experience with about 45 minutes of actual whale watching and the rest of the time spent getting to the spot and back. You can't really here anything the captain is saying unless your directly under the speaker. The trip could be a little better if they played some music on the way and back, but again, you wouldn't be able to really hear it that good. Having said all that, all staff encountered were pleasant and friendly and it was a pleasant ride to and from. Overall I would say it probably wasn't worth the price ($70). If I had seen more whales/dolphins I'd probably feel different. And again, I realize it's not something they can control, but it does have to factor into the rating.

There have been times we have limited out in a couple hours and bottom fished the rest of the day. I've had to get a bigger freezer as a result! So if your a group of guys looking to have a good time fishing on the water, a work group looking to do a lil bonding, or even a family looking to have a great day on the water. This is the boat for you. They have patience and know how to make every trip enjoyable. My friend and family highly recommend Irish Jig! Can't wait for the season to start!

You can stop in to see the indoor and outside tanks, with the touch tank being the highlight! In addition to drop in visits, they have a variety of classes (some free, some paid) for kids that you can register for. Crabbing under the docks, creature walks at Andy's Way, fishing camps. They also have "adult" talks with visiting experts on various marine topics each week. The staff are clearly passionate about what they do and make a real effort to connect with the visitors and share about their knowledge. Def worth the visit!

A group of us went out on the Drifter in June of 2013 and I have to say I was quite impressed…read more Capt. Rich put us on the fish almost immediately and kept lines tight just about all day. The other thing I really liked about this boat was that he has 2 fighting chairs, which came in handy as we frequently had 2 people fighting fish at one time. Great fishing can make any captain look good, but what impressed me the most about Capt. Rich was how he reacted when things started to slow down. Whether it was changing rigs or changing spots, you could always tell that the captain was hard at work to keep us in the fish, something he was very successful at. This was my first time out on the Drifter but it certainly won't be my last. If you're looking for the perfect fishing boat and a captain who knows how to keep his clients' lines tight, I highly recommend you give the Drifter a look.
