We're novice fisherman (at best), so we started with trolling to build our confidence. The fish were practically jumping into the boat. Afterward we tried our hand at casting, which really brought the beauty of the sport front and center. I highly recommend booking with Captain Kurt for a cool, relaxed trip. Bonus: The boat was new, fast and quiet.

We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Woods Hole Island Tours! Booking online was…read moreincredibly easy, and the communication leading up to our tour was excellent. Captain Donny was fantastic. This trip was all about giving our two-year-old daughter the best possible boat adventure (with the bonus of celebrating an early Father's Day for my husband!), and Captain Donny made sure it was everything we hoped for. He was so kind, welcoming, and wonderful with all of us, especially our toddler. We chose the one-hour tour, and it was perfect. We explored the beautiful Elizabeth Islands, and seeing Naushon Island from the water was spectacular. I've spent the last 44 summers on Cape Cod, and somehow I'd never experienced these incredible views. It felt like discovering a whole new side of the Cape. We also loved hearing about Captain Donny's family's connection to Landfall, one of our favorite Cape Cod restaurants! We had such a great time that we're already talking about when we can book another tour. We've been telling all of our neighbors they need to go, too! If you're considering a trip with Woods Hole Island Tours, don't hesitate. It was one of the highlights of our summer.

We lost count of how many fish we caught, and we'd go out on this boat in a heartbeat. Definite 5 star rating here, taking home more fish filets than we could eat in a month. These guys are knowledgeable and talented. Definitely take the 5 hour trip. It was well worth every penny. Awesome day and exceptional fishing from these guys.

Novice but enthusiastic offshore fishers with lots of inshore and freshwater experience. This was a first for all of us. We were 40-45 miles offshore all morning in an area with nothing shy of 100 whales, breaching, porpoising, and spouting the entire time. Fogged in for early morning with improving skies all day. The first fish was 38-40" fish that blew up the top water spread when he hit it, amazing. Second fish was right at the max, 70", probably north of 180#s. Captain Dennis had to work to keep us on fish as the wolfpack were pretty finicky near the surface. We called it to go try for striper, and within an hour of fishing for striper, we were maxed out. Boat great, First mate and Capitain great team, fish were the real stars of the day. When we got back, all fish were fileted and prepped for us to portion out and freeze. Still enjoying the spoils at dinner time. Thank you Dennis. We'll be back!!!!

We, on the other hand, like to eat, what we catch. I have been on the Magellan more than half a dozen times. Mostly with Jason (and could not recommend him enough), who this past week we found out was no longer working with Lenny. Why? Because Lenny is too cheap. We tried to book a trip this past Monday (June 25, 2018) and Lenny insisted that we start an 8 hour trip at 3:00 a.m. Who wants to go fishing that early in the morning? Finally we negotiated a 10:00 a.m. start time. The idea was to catch striped bass (and the occasional blue) to start off, and then come back for porgies and black sea bass. The first fish that we caught was a little over 32 inches; the second 34; the third 35 inches. At that point, Lenny declared that any fish over 34 inches was "commercial" and we could not keep - we kept fishing until each one on the boat reached the one fish (under 34 inches) limit, leaving Lenny with 5 stripers, some over 40 inches, which Lenny pretended that "did not exist". He also suggested that that porgy and black sea bass fishing "has not been good lately" - so we cut our trip to 3.5 hours. Yep - $750.00 for 3.5 of fishing - mostly, catching fish for the captain. I called Lenny to express my disappointment, and he has not bothered to called me back. I get that money is his underlying objective, and I don't mind paying him fair rates, but I felt cheated for bringing the least amount of fish home, from any other time that we have gone fishing, while blistering my hands, catching fish for Lenny.
