Arms tired from too many fish - We go fishing a lot and this was one of the most memorable and fun experiences. Everyone on board were hooking fish non stop, sometimes 2 at a time. The captain and his brother even managed to get us close to watch the whales and dolphins while we fished. Lunch from catch in the morning was so good, compliments to the chef (i.e. captain). We also took some fish to our rental to cook over the next couple of days which saved us a lot of money from not eating out. My only regret is not having enough cash to tip the captain and his brother.

Catch and all you can eat fish - I cannot believe the amount of fish we caught! We had near perfect weather and calm seas too. Our deck hand, Jacob, had his hands full helping to remove our fish and either toss them to the seagulls or in the bucket for lunch. We caught wolf fish, haddock, cod and Halibut. Even whiting but they were too small. And the best part, the captain cleaned and cooked our catch on board. He even offered to send the fresh filet home if someone had a kitchen. It was an amazing day

Fantastic fishing trip, highly recommended - We had a fantastic day on the water fishing and taking in the beautiful surroundings of Reykjavik. We planned this last minute and didn’t know what to expect. Everyone caught an abundance of fish. The crew was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable.

Won't disappoint! - Awesome experience. I had basically no knowledge of fishing but it was very easy and quick to learn and the hosts were super friendly. We caught a ton of fish and they made a great meal for us at the end. Can't eat any fish fresher than on while still on the ocean!

Great experience - The captain and crew were great! Very accommodating and passionate about what they do. Very kind to our kids, and patient with them. When I started having issues with sea sickness they got me what I needed and checked on me frequently. We had a great time and we would definitely go out again!

Sea angling with the brothers!! - Our first sea angling experience is so terrific. The caption is well versed with the breeding grounds that even my 8 yo could catch fishes by herself. The brothers team cooked a mouth-watering lunch for us too! They also brought us near to the puffin island to view these great swimmers with small wings.
