Great boat, great skipper and crew. CAPT Bly worked hard to put us on fish and ensured everyone on the trip had fun and caught fish no matter their experience level. Boat was clean, excellently maintained, and well set up to fish from.

This was my fourth time out on the Escapade; it just keeps getting better each time. Matt had us on tuna all day. I can only recall one drop into the water where I did NOT see a school of BFT there to greet me. 9 fish speared and landed; 3 fish hooked and landed.

I have been on 4 multi day trips with Bly. He always makes the trips fun and has a great sense of humor along with a willingness to teach. He has a ton knowledge and experience when it comes to fishing the San Diego waters. I recommend him to all my friends and family when they are looking for a 4-6 pack fishing trip.
