I have been on many chartered fishing trips in my life, and I can say that I have never had so much fun, and caught so many fish, as I have with you. Your knowledge of the waters and professionalism is quite evident as well as your passion for fishing. You go out of your way to make each trip memorable for everyone on the boat. You spend a lot of time with your guests, helping each person with technique, and setting up tackle. The personal attention that you provide is second to none. Fishing with you is like fishing with an old friend. I am always telling everyone I know, about my experiences fishing with you.

For the best fishing experience you will ever have, book a fishing trip with Captain Paul. We weren't able to fish for our first few days in Fort Bragg, so Captain Paul took us on a local tour to visit some of the local beaches, towns and a drive-through tree. After a day of fishing, Captain Paul cooked an amazing fish fry from our fish. My son and I had a great vacation and the best fishing experience of a lifetime.
