Good trip with knowledgeable, captain and crew - The captain and crew were very knowledgeable. It took a little over an hr to get to the spot with about 2 hrs of fishing. Saw some dolphins, jelly fish and sea turtles. A lot of fish and two sharks were caught. Great experience, kids enjoyed it too! Defiantly something we would do again. The boat did offer shade if you needed to get out of the sun! All in all it was a good trip!

Rainy weather but so much fun! - This was a fantastic experience! The weather was disappointing, but the captain still tried his best to make it a success. The waves were extra fun, and the crew worked to keep everyone safe and comfortable. They baited hooks for those who didn’t want to, and we moved spots to try to have better success. It’s a wonderful boat and a great experience. We didn’t catch anything, but we saw dolphins jumping right alongside the boat and saw a baby shark and a stingray!

Bucket list item checked! - This was such a fun experience for my first time offshore fishing. It was a great way to get my feet wet, without booking an entire private half day charter. The staff were so friendly and helpful. It’s perfect for couples and families who aren’t necessarily serious anglers but like to catch and release.

Fantastic! Captain Ethan of Boomerang 2 was awesome and made the trip one to remember. - We had a fantastic time with Captain Ethan on Boomerang 2. He was enjoyable to be around and made our trip totally worth it. We plan to add this fishing charter to our yearly trip to Hilton Head! 10/10 experience.

Great Trip Overall - The crew were awesome especially the first mate. But this was not the trip for half of my family. It was such a nice day and no wind but as soon as we got out to the ocean the boat was rocking and we had 3/5 of us sick. Still had a few catches but I was so sad that for the most of us we were pretty miserable. There were a few others on board who were sick too. I would recommend some motion sickness medicine beforehand and bring some cold water too. But again if it wasnt for the rough sea conditions it would have been great. There were even 2 little sharks caught by others on board so that was exciting! But if i could do it over I would go on a different outing instead-again nothing bad about this experience in general just not for us.

Half day fishing trip - We were really looking forward to this part of our vacation and we were definitely disappointed when we left. The mate on the boat did a very good job helping everyone get their fish off their hooks however, besides the one shark that was caught by another person on the boat nobody caught anything on the whole outing that was even able to be kept. We were hoping for much bigger catches and the boat had way too many people on it. Will definitely book a private fishing trip next time.

Great for a family - Good trip for a family. Very friendly and very helpful. If you are a serious fisher get a solo trip.

Don’t let people go out when you know the fishing has been bad. - Nice people but no fish caught. Also trip ran 1 hour short and the credit given was only $32 on a $308 total cost.
