Had some pretty rough waters the day of our charter, but that Captain handled the ship, that crew handled business and so did we. Somebody give that crew of the Carolina Princess run of 28 September 26 a bonus. Tell em the Tree’s told you it was a good idea.

Only 4 hours of fishing on 11 hour trip. Most only caught a few fish. Would have liked to move around a bit more with more time to fish. Last drop took an 1 hour to get there. Then time to leave. Drove too far for a few fish. Will not come back. The mate that was assisting witjh very nice. Never saw the captain. Wpuld have been nice for him to introduce himself. Just constructive criticism.

I had a wonderful all-day trip with Captain Tyler and his crew on the Carolina Princess today. Plenty of space on the bow for fishing and they were very helpful for this casual tourist who only gets out once a year. They handled the shark I pulled in skillfully. The Captain came down to show us how it’s done and hauled in the biggest snapper I’ve ever seen on his 2nd or 3rd cast. He even handed off his rod so I could keep fishing when the shark took my tackle. Saved us a lot of work cleaning today’s catch so we could enjoy them for our dinner after a long day on the water.

Cancelled 2 days in advance because of bad weather. The weather is perfectly fine and had the least chance of rain all week.

The crew was fantastic, but the captain never introduced himself and never gave a safety talk or any instructions before getting underway. The rod holders didn't have numbers on them, which caused a lot of confusion right off the bat. The boat was also very cramped and the benches (if you were lucky enough to have a spot with a bench) were so small and uncomfortable. They could definitely use some padding and more handrails around the vessel. It was also concerning to see young children without lifejackets, but considering how hot it was, it was probably safer for the kids not to wear them. I wish they would provide umbrellas or anything to provide shade. The cabin was always packed and the shaded spots were few and far between. 11 hours of direct sunlight was brutal and not for the faint of heart. I would not recommend to older folks or young children.
That being said, we did get put on some fish and overall we had a great time, but be prepared to be extremely hot and uncomfortable if you are going out in the summer.
