Ryan Lowney5.0VerifiedGraham found the fish!!
Fluke 4 Hour Trip on August 27, 2026 • 2 adults • 1 childFantastic experience! My son’s first fishing trip out on the ocean. He caught a bunch of fish and hasn’t stopped talking about it. He’s already talking about the next trip out! Our captain (Graham) was top notch. Extremely professional- Went over safety, boat etiquette, and how to catch a fish! :) Thanks again for a great Graham. We’ll definitely be back! 🎣

Fluke 4 Hour Trip on September 3, 2026 • 2 adultsCaptain Graham and his boat are top notch in every way. Conditions weren’t perfect but Graham worked hard to put us over fish all day long. An easy going guy who knows his stuff. From adjusting the day’s schedule due to weather in the beginning of the day to expertly cleaning our catch at the end, Capt Graham was aces.

John Sweitzer5.0VerifiedFantastic day!!
Striped Bass 4 Hour Trip on August 14, 2025 • 2 adultsCaptain Graham was great, fun to chat with and easy going. Got us on lots of fish and gave us a little extra time to try and get the elusive keeper fluke. Never got it but hit our limit of sea bass and he even filleted them, vacuum sealed them and dropped them off at my rental house! Can’t ask for better service than that! Will definitely de back again!!!

Fluke 4 Hour Trip on July 29, 2026 • 4 adultsWe had a great morning out on the water with Captain Graham & his first mate! They were friendly, knowledgeable, and made the trip a lot of fun. The boat is clean, comfortable & well kept. We caught a lot of fish, but no keepers this time. Guess we’ll have to come back! Highly recommend, 10/10.
