Justin Lopez“Went fishing with my Dad on Capt. Dave Tilley's Charter Boat. What a great trip. Capt. Dave and 1st mate Adam were awesome. They put us on the fish. We caught 39 Spanish Mackerel and 1 Bonita. Great experience. Great memory.”
John Premiani“Went out for a 5 hour trip and Captain Tilley and his First Mate made this a very memorable trip for my three boys aged 8 - 10 - 14. Not only did they know where the fish were but they made it enjoyable for the littles. We will be back again next year for a longer trip thank you for the memories.”
