Lot of good Charter sponsors mentioned on many posts here. Take the time to read reports that go waaaay back and see who is consistently on the fish and who has the right attitude to make your day. Keep in mind that some Captains and mates may tend to exaggerate more than a little.

But most of us regular fishermen have nothing to gain by praising one boat over another. Though I have been on trips that another person may have reported on & sometimes I have to wonder, "was that the same boat I was on?"
I guess what works for one person may not necessarily work for another.
