Was the beat 2 days blackfish fishing dave really know where to go and Evan does a better job fileting fish then a fish market and always a great timePosted on Roland LaBrie jrOctober 7, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Fished with a bunch of guys from work this charter put us on fish all day can’t wait to go againPosted on Michal ZukowskiOctober 4, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. These guys are the best. This was my 5th trip with them and definitely not the last. If you want to catch big fish and not worry about tangling your lines with 40 other people Mako2 is the way to go. Boat can take 8 but I recommend 6 to be comfortable.Posted on Marissa CoxJuly 17, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great Experience! Captain knew where the fish were and deck hand was great with our kids!Posted on John FyansJuly 6, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Captain Dave and Evan are an excellent team, Dave put us on fish right away and Evan was a true professional constantly working the gear to make sure we landed plenty of fish! Our crew of 9 was worn out by the end of the day- we even had a close encounter with a Mako taking one of our bass right at the boat, once in a lifetime event! Can’t recommend highly enough, 2 of the best in the business!Posted on Melvin HessJune 21, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. These guys are the best!
