This was a perfect family experience. The crew were friendly and made the trip so enjoyable for everyone on the boat!
It was a great experience. The crew was great and very knowledgeable. We saw dolphins and a couple sharks and got to take some shrimp home with us. My grandkids had an amazing time.
Super fun time catching shrimp aboard the Tammy Jane with Captain John, First Mate Ashley and Deckhand Maddie!! Learned a lot and got some hands on time with the catch! Highly recommend this trip!!
The boards didn’t separate when sinking to the bottom. Staff mentioned to the captain that the net looked tangled. That would have been a good time to bring the net back up and address the issue. The net wasn’t open when trolling for a hour resulted in catching only a handful of shrimp and ZERO bycatch.
Everyone had a great time. The crew was friendly and very informative. It was a plus that our tour caught about 30 lbs of shrimp.
Fun time out on the water on the Tammy Jane and her captain and crew. All were knowledgeable and kept conversations lively. Cut a bit short due to weather, but will do again.
It was such a fun experience!!! The crew was very friendly and so knowledgeable. When the catch came in, the crew took the time to talk about the other sea creatures that were also in the haul before putting them back to sea. There were some young kids on the cruise and the crew was so good with them.
The crew was knowledgeable and very excited about the haul brought in. They made the trip even more fun!
The crew on Tammy Jane was so awesome! Not only were they super kind and knowledgeable, they were fun. They told us a lot about the area and the marine life. All in all a great excursion for all ages!
What a great time and wonderful experience! The staff was the best, very friendly, helpful and informative. Go! You won't regret it.
