My husband and son had such an amazing time fishing off the pier with TC's fishing adventures. Our guide Chris did an outstanding job! His knowledge and energy really made it a great experience. We enjoyed it so much that we booked another tour the day before we left. Highly recommend! These guys were great!
Had a great time . Even caught a couple fish and a stingray . Our guide was helpful and very informative.
TC was a nice, friendly, energetic, and honest guy. We had scheduled pier fishing for our honeymoon. When we got to the pier TC found that the fishing conditions were not ideal due to a lot of washed up seaweed. He was honest in the fact that we would likely not catch anything if we continued to fish at the pier. He offered to take us right then to another spot that would be cleared up, or we could go the next day. We chose the next day, due to other scheduled plans. The second spot was great. We caught 8 fish, 4 different species, in 2 hours. We fish regularly, but not in the ocean. TC met us on our level and gave us tips, but also let us do more on our own since we had experience. He was knowledgeable about the location, fish, and bird species around. We really appreciated his honesty and the fact he didn’t want to take our money if we weren’t going to have a good time.
My son and I did the 10am fishing today off the pier. While the weather was fine, our fishing was not. We didn’t catch a single fish. I’m a little upset. And yes that’s how fishing goes sometimes, but when you spend a good amount to do it, it’s just aggravating. The guys that worked on the pier were friendly and gave us bait when we needed it, but didn’t really offer to help or give advice. Maybe next time we will do deep sea fishing instead. The pier is probably just out fished every day.
Hello Morgan. Sorry that you didn't catch a fish in the 2-Hour time slot. The Spot fin Croakers showed up this morning. As you mentioned it's fishing. We most definitely can't control what shows up or when they bite. I also offer deep sea fishing trips. Even on a boat we can't make them bite. Sometimes the fish are spawning or just got done feeding. The water is still heating up. We went from the winter conditions to the spring run. Now they're on the move and feeding..
The description made us think the experience was going to entail more than fishing from the pier, and immediately next to the bait shop. Our guide is a great guy - we enjoyed his company and service. Our guide did what he could to help us catch fish which was appreciated. Net / next - excellent service- I would hire our guide again - yet I feel misled on what the 3 of us would get in exchange for the $225.
Good morning this is TC the fishing guide. I'm glad that you enjoyed your guide.Yes we have been fishing the Surf Zone which is close to the bait shop. This time of year fish are feeding on the sand crabs 🦀 That's why we where using shrimp. Target species Surf Perch ,Corbin ,Yellowfin Croakers , Leopard Shark, Guitar Sharks as well as Halibut. Now when it comes to fishing especially from the pier we can't control when they bite or which species will show up. But we're ready for them when they do decide to bite🎣. You mentioned that you where mislead about what you got for 3 individuals which included bait and tackle rods and reels plus a guide. The water is still heating up so we went with the bait and wait rig
Chris was a great guide. My son enjoyed learning how to fish off of the pier and had great conversations to pass the time. I would highly recommend this to any level fisherman.
TC is a great guy! He is patient, knowledgeable, and fun to be around. We were not in town for the best fishing weather/season but we had a fun time regardless. He provides poles, bait, tackle, everything...with a winning smile. It was a beautiful day to spend on the pier and we learned a lot for future reference. We heartily recommend TC for a great experience.
TC did such an amazing job teaching my three boys, ages 8, 17, and 20 how to fish in the ocean. He found ways to encourage them in a genuine way when not much was biting. He’s so fun and upbeat that he just made it fun all around, and also meaningful with his wise quips.
I truly enjoyed meeting you all. Your Son did great out there. Until next time🎣
Amazing morning with TC and Chris fishing off the pier. They had so much patience dealing with my kids and were so much fun!! They were both very helpful and extremely knowledgeable. Such a fun way to start the day!!
