My friend and I went on the 4-hour afternoon fishing trip yesterday after finding a deal on…read moreGroupon, and I had such a great time. This was my very first fishing charter, so I was really excited for some deep-sea fishing--and Starfish Boats definitely lived up to the reviews I had read beforehand. The mate, Anthony, was the star of the show. He works for tips, and you should absolutely tip him because he is your best friend out there. From the moment we got on the boat, he was helping with everything--setting up the poles, putting the bait on for the first cast, walking around checking in on everyone, and jumping in whenever someone needed help. He made the whole experience so much easier and way more fun. At one point, I hooked something really big--probably a shark--but my rod couldn't handle it. Anthony quickly cut the line, set me up with a new pole, and got me right back to fishing. I ended up catching a little baby bluefish. My friend didn't catch anything this time, but plenty of people around us were reeling things in: bluefish, flounder, and even baby sharks. So you're definitely going to catch something out here! The trip itself was well-organized: about an hour ride out to the fishing spot, then we moved three or four times to drop lines before the hour ride back, giving us roughly two solid hours of fishing. Everything ran smoothly. The only downside for me was the number of people on the boat and some kids running around who clearly weren't into fishing--it got a little distracting. But I get it, families want to bring their kids along for the experience. Next time I might try a trip with fewer people for a quieter vibe. Overall, I give Starfish Boats five stars. Great crew, well-run trip, and an awesome first experience with a fishing charter. I'd definitely go out with them again.

The DJ was playing patriotic music throughout the fireworks. They were giving out free pretzels and sodas were free as well. Everyone was very friendly and we really enjoyed the few hours we were out on the boat. Would definitely take another trip with this company in the future.

We were not even off the dock upon our return before my kids were asking me to go again. Captain Mike took us to several different fishing spots and we reeled in over 40 fish during our outing. His equipment for us was great and had plenty of bait and rigs to accommodate us. (Even when my 9 year old got tangled and snagged a few times.) Mike answered all 3000 questions my kids brought to him and made sure they were hooked.
