Real words from the water

First trip. Lasting memory.

Kim Bagby joined Captain Brian for a first deep-sea fishing experience in August 2024.

“
Kingfisher Captain Brian was amazing! We had never been deep sea fishing. He made sure we caught plenty of fish. We caught snapper, ling cod and cabezon (ugly fish). Brian is professional, funny, enthusiastic, and very knowledgeable. We want to come back and do a tuna and salmon trip. Would only go with Kingfisher!!

This was our first time deep sea fishing and Brian did not disappoint. We caught snapper, Ling Cod and Cabezon. Brian is an enthusiastic guide and knows fishing. He has a great sense of humor, makes you feel welcome and went above and beyond teaching us how to deep sea fish, he taught us how to clean the fish (he did most of the work). He cooked us fish tacos and they were yummy. We plan on going fishing for tuna and Salmon. We will only use Brian on any future trips!!!
