I can’t sing Captain Tom‘s praises enough! This is our second trip through Wild Wave with Tom and we have never been disappointed! Not only did my fiancé and I catch our limit on both trips, but Tom and his deckhands were so knowledgable and fun to be around! We would all pal around while waiting for hits – talking fishing, San Francisco, hobbies, pedicures, weddings, recipes, drinking, etc. It was such an easygoing morning. When we weren’t fighting monster fish, that is!
So much fun. Caught our limit had a great time lifelong memories. Very addicting. so cool to just fish in the Bay area looking at the Golden gate bridge and all the other sites what a treat. First class service. Captain Tom and Captain Mike are amazing.
It was my wife’s first time fishing after 25 years and she had so much fun and fell in love with fishing all over again. My son loves fishing as do I what a trip. So much fun.
