Well unfortunately our experience with Capt Cory wasn't so good. We arrived at the marina at 6:40 and started looking for him and finally at 7:50 I went to the folks working at the. marina store and they called him. He pulls up in his boat right at 7am and has to then get bait at the marina. When we meet him he asks " What kind of fishing do we want to do today"? I responded with we want to do the fishing we signed up for on his website, which was backcountry sport fishing with fly rods. He indicated that I "picked" the wrong boat for the trip since we had 3 people. I told him I didn't have a boat option on the website just the number of people we could choose. I thought the whole intro was weird as we clearly picked out the trip we wanted and had 3 people listed. Well we learned lated in the trip that Cory doesn't read his emails from the website telling him what people have booked. So he didn't know we wanted backcountry, he didn't have fly fishing rods and he was late and didn't have bait. So as you can imagine, we didn't catch anything. We focused on Tarpon but I think we were too late to Tarpon fish as they are early eaters. He didn't have enough Bobers either and we met with another boat to pick some more up. We eventually went to a little lagoon on the Ocean side that was surrounded by private property, which I think was his last resort. Whether it was legal or not I am not sure. So we fished this little area for about 45 minutes and got a 4 bites but all 4 lines broke when dealing them into the boat. Capt Cory only had 20lb test line on our rods and he said it just wasn't enough to hole the Tarpon??? Nice Kid but needs to be organized and more professional.
