Jesse Gawlik, Thank you! You folks were awesome. Looking forward to our next trip.

Had a great day out on the water for a 4 hour near shore fishing trip. The captain was a fun guy who my whole family got along great with. We brought home a bag of fish and cooked it the way he recommended and let's just say even my picky 14 year old went back for seconds. Don't let the bad reviews fool you this is a great charter and the captain is cool and down to earth.

We had an excellent time fishing with you and your family. I’m glad we exceeded your expectations. See you in September for the Gulfstream Trip!

Many thanks to Natasha & Jesse! We used them for the 2023 KWLA tournament in Morehead and had a great experience. Very professional, friendly and knowledgeable. I appreciated how hard they worked to try and put us on the fish. Would happily use them again.

Such a great time fishing. We could only do a half day so we couldn’t go too far out. But we still caught a pile of fish. Jessie and Natasha and great folks to help you experience a great fishing excursion. Will definitely book them again.

Meredith! We had a blast on the boat with everyone, you guys are hilarious, and so much fun! It was an awesome day and we are definitely looking forward to have you all back in the fall for Wahoo! Safe travels, Natasha & Jesse

We had such an amazing day with Natasha and Jessie and even got lucky to catch a few fish! Weather was great and we met both of them right on time and headed towards the boat. Got a thorough explanation of what’s ahead of us and sailed out of their pier. The boat is huge, very strong, stable and very well taken care of. Both Natasha and Jessie kept telling us what we were seeing and what they were doing to operate the boat. The had plenty of rods out and we could tell how much they wanted us to have a great time. When we got back, Natasha was kind enough to fillet and scale the fish. Later on we enjoyed them over dinner. What a great day and what a great experience. Our only regret is that we didn’t take the longer tour. But we will definitely come back!

Avner! You and your dad were an absolute joy to have on the boat, so much laughter and great stories! We sincerely thank you for your kind review, and the opportunity to show you, and father what we absolutely love to do! We are looking forward to have the entire family on the ocean later this year! Safe Travels, Natasha & Jesse

This was truly an unforgettable experience with my sons (20,15 and 8) as well as a few college roommate. My only regret is i didn’t book it for a full day. From start to finish, the crew made sure that every aspect of the trip was enjoyable and memorable. The boat was top-of-the-line, with all of the latest equipment and technology to make our fishing experience as successful as possible. The Natasha and Jesse were knowledgeable and experienced, and they went out of their way to make sure that we were comfortable and well taken care of throughout the trip. They knew all of the best spots to fish, and they shared their expertise with us to set us up for a day of successful fishing. They are truly a well oiled machine making you feel like family from the minute you step on the boat. Besides their expert knowledge of fishing they are very passionate about the ecosystem and provided a lot interesting knowledge. Overall, I would highly recommend them for a experience to anyone who loves fishing or wants to try it for the first time. The combination of high-quality equipment, knowledgeable crew, and great fishing spots make for an amazing day on the water. If you have the chance, I would definitely take advantage of this incredible opportunity! I will be booking again for more trips this summer.

Scott! Thank you so much for your review! We do take an immense amount of time, and thought in being able to create an environment that's personable, and memorable. We greatly appreciate your positive feedback, and will continue to strive to offer the best experience to everyone that wishes to fish with us. We are looking forward to having your family fish offshore in a couple months! Till then, safe travels! Natasha & Jesse

Our crew had a great 6 hours on the water. The weather wasn't on our side but Jesse and Natasha are total pros and a blast to be around. I've been a number of charters and the way they run their boat is definitely the best. We plan on coming back for sure, thanks guys!!
