When you can catch your target fish it’s a great day! Gary freely shared so much information and I’m glad I jotted down his pointers. He showed us a couple of knots that we will practice and use. Some of the details he shared about bait and bait placement were eye opening. Gary has an extensive knowledge of fishing in the surf and years of experience. He’s a great teacher and I’m glad we spent the morning with him. We caught fish, laughed, and learned. You can’t beat that.

We had a great day on the beach!  Gary met us at Kure beach and we went in his four wheel drive vehicle onto the driving beach at Fort Fisher.  He is very knowledgeable about surf fishing and we caught small sharks and nice whiting/sea mullet!  My 14 year old son was with us and Gary was very patient with him and taught him some great surf fishing skills.  If you have kids old enough to cast a surf rod, I highly recommend a surf fishing trip with Gary!  I will will be back for more!

My son and I had an awesome afternoon with Gary. He took great care of us, providing a range of equipment in great condition and various snacks for the afternoon. While fishing, he shared details with us of how to read the water to gauge channels and relative depth, and instruction on casting, knot tying, different types of bait to use and how best to bait the various hook types. Truly an educational afternoon that my son and I both found very memorable. Highly recommended!

Gary was very knowledgeable and helpful. He knows his stuff. We felt comfortable asking him any fishing question we had. His equipment was top notch and he provided everything. From baits, hooks, sinkers, reels and rods, to showing us where and why to fish in what area, he knew it all. Super nice and a joy to spend the morning with. He allowed us to make the trip exactly what we wanted it to be. Thanks, Gary!

Everything about our trip was great!  The captain and first mate took care of all our needs!  We were able to catch fish, relax and learn a ton.  I have been surf fishing a few times over the last few years, but wanted to learn from the pros and this trip did exactly that!  Casting, Rigging, Reading the beach and even how to drive on the beach!  It was great!  Thank you!!
