Daniel Gross5.0Verifiedawesome time
Half Day Trip – Inshore on September 7, 2024 • 4 adultsI had a great trip with three friends from college on Captain Derrick’s boat. He was very knowledgeable about where the best Fishing was and showed us all the technique we needed. We brought home a striped bass, black bass and Porgies 10 times out of 10 would recommend and will book with him again in the future.
