Hurricane Joe did a great job of getting us on the fish
We didn’t stay in one spot very long.
Messaged the capt 4 days before we left to send me a good time to reach him so we could discuss the trip. Never heard from him. In my opinion that is unprofessional when I was spending $1800 for the charter. The capt that is on fishingbooker.com is not who took us out. Had a different deck hand that was working the trip. The deck hand before left everything a mess. Nothing was set up and deck hand was having trouble finding anything and seemed very frustrated. The a.c. kept going out. Had cabin temperature was up to 80+ degrees at times. We did catch fish but every big fish hook up ended with broke lines. That happened 7 times because the line was trash. They just kept saying sharks were getting them and amberjack are hard to catch yet the boat that came in after us had 6 big ones. Our biggest fish that we brought back was probably 3 pounds. Water in the sink by the toilet would not work most of the time.

Sorry for your disappointment, we are slammed this time of year and I did not have much time to answer every inquiry and yours was missed. As far as amberjacks personally I won’t fish primarily for them on such a short trip, to many variables like sharks for one, example ,bait runs up the line after a Jack hits and another fish, king or sharks eats it while your fighting your fish and line is broke, so it’s not bad line.just bad luck. 1 boat out of 40 came to the dock with some jacks, most likely 12hr trip or longer. I did inform prior deckhand about keeping tackle uncluttered and ready to use. Fresh Water pump broke on that trip, mechanical problems happen. AC control is in bad spot and gets bumped while sitting in that area, working on correcting that.If there is a next time we will try to make it up to you. Capt even gave you a little more time due to spending to much time jack fishing. I was right next to Capt. Brian when you texted him said you had a good time just wish you could have caught a few more fish.
