He started her out with all of the knowledge she needed before they ever got in the water, which calmed her nerves. Once they got in, she did fantastic & made it up on the first run.

Spencer put a LOT of effort into pulling her & making her experience so great. Would definitely take more lessons if we had the time.

THIS GUY SOLD MY TICKETS EVEN THOUGH WE HAD GUARANTEED RESERVATIONS WITH CREDIT CARD!!…read more I made reservations on the Queen Jean and guaranteed the reservation for six with my credit card. The captain said that would hold my reservation but we would need to pay in cash. He told me the boat was behind the Assembly Building. He said we had to pay in cash but the credit card would guarantee we would have six spots on the boat! We also had to be there half hour before sailing. Sailing was at 9:00. We were there at 8:30 with a lot of other folks. There was a group of six people that came in about 8:50 that were from Kentucky! After going over safety instructions the Captain told everyone to show their tickets and board. That was the first we heard of needing a ticket. He never told me over the phone we needed tickets. I went up to him and asked him where we get our tickets and he asked my name. I told him and he said, "I sold your tickets". I was shocked! On my way back to the house he texted me and said he was sorry. Now if he had my phone number why didn't he have the courtesy to call me before he "sold" my tickets? My grandchildren had looked forward to this all week and by selling our tickets he ruined our day! I would never go on this fishing boat!! I would not recommend them at all!!

The half day fishing trip was $60 a person and leaves at 9 and comes back at 2. Their website actually says its $70 but we paid $60. Warning: they don't take credit cards! But they took my husband and brother in laws driver license as "collateral" that they would find an ATM on our return and pay when the trip was over, which we did. We went out for about an hour and a half on a beautiful boat ride with about 50 people on board. There is a boat captain, two mates and a guy running the galley kitchen. They were all very nice and accommodating. You didn't have to take anything with you fishing and they would even take your fish off and bait your hook if needed. We stopped at three different holes before heading back. Our party of 4 caught 9 good size fish that fed our family of 7 dinner that night. Actually 3 of us caught 9 keepers, my poor sister was pretty sea sick most of the trip. If you're prone to sea sickness either take a lot of Dramamine or maybe sit this one out. Overall it was a great trip. Very nice crew. Very professional.

The weather was great and Capt David was better. He kept is wailing bluefish and Spanish mackerel. He was awesome with the kids - taking time to instruct them on fishing and provide some history. When they got hot he stopped at the beach and let them swim while teaching them to throw a cast net. He provided snacks, drinks and even let them drive. When we got back to the dock he cleaned the fish and took them into the Marina Cafe. The cafe prepared the fish along with fries, hush puppies and slaw - all part of the charter. What a great day!
