This was the best fishing experience we ever hada We caught 20 fish (not even counting those we couldn't keep)! Captain Pierre is absolutely wonderful. He handled adverse situations beyond his control with a calm and collected demeanor! Highly recommend his services!

My son and I have done many charter fishing trips and the one with Capt Pierre yesterday was by far the best! He works hard to put you on the fish and is very knowledgeable/patient. Pierre is our first choice Capt for all future trips!

The best fishing guide we have ever used. Super patient, knowledgeable, and accommodating. Caught plenty of fish and even if we didn’t catch any fish, his personality makes the trip still worth it. This is the only guide we will use from now on and will be sure to make plans around his availability. I cannot stress enough that this is who to hire for anyone hunting for a guide.

Had a great time with Captain Pierre. We didn’t have the best weather conditions when we went out, but Pierre got us on some fish immediately. He was very knowledgeable, professional and personable. We’ve been on several fishing trips and this was hands down our favorite. Would 100% recommend and we will use him again!

Had a great time with Capt. Pierre. He found the fish quickly even in windy and cool weather he was very accommodating and my son and I had a blast. The weather on the bay can be a little unpredictable but he prepared us well in advance. Other guides don’t try as hard or have as many positive reviews as Pierre. You really can’t go wrong. We will come back next year for sure.
