He gave us the option to reschedule or give it a shot knowing the bite could come back any time. We chose to reschedule for a few days out. On fishing day, there were only 4 of us anglers, Captin Jarrid, and our deck hand Ayden. Jarrid & Ayden set the trolling lins out and we hit the tuna real quick. A couple guys landed, but the bite died down. They set the trolling lines out again, switched jigs a couple times and we hit the tuna school again. It was non stop action till we finally ran out of bait. We got tons of fish. Awesome group of guys on board. Jarrid & Ayden worked real hard and this trip was more than worth it. I really appreciate everything and I will definitely book my next trip with Jarrid & Salty Dog Charters. It was fun! Thank you Jarrid & Ayden

However, my experience was anything but pleasant. I was greeted by a lady who, when I didn't know everything, berated me. To make matters worse, as she got off the call, she hurled offensive remarks at me. Salty fisherman are one thing, but being rude, condescending, and calling people four-letter words is absolutely ridiculous. They were complete ***. Avoid this company if you want any semblance of respect or professionalism.

There are a bunch of charter fishing operations out there. Here's what I'll say about Tommycod:…read more It was a strange morning of turbulent waters (there were a lot of calls on the radio to the coast guard for assistance that morning) and shy fish. Still, in spite of carrying a boat of half seasick passengers who thought they knew best regarding what they wanted (myself of course included)--which was to go home and kiss some land--Captain Tom kept on. We finally found an area where the bottomfish kept biting and magically delivered not only more fish than we needed (though we didn't hit our minimums which.. according to my uncle who's done this before with Tommycod and according to the proud captain.. is unheard of) andddd best of all the sky opened up and the seas settled down. All went home happy, feeling much better, and hungry for fish. Also of note, their max passenger number to 6 which makes for a tight knit bunch and individual attention. Thanks, Capt Tom and Carlo aka Cub!
