Company Fishing Trip

by Mike Manion at Citysearch

We chartered the Dolphin for our company fishing trip leaving out of Tarpon Spring. We left the dock at 9:00 am. We had 75 employee's and family on the trip. EVERY Thing from the time we left to the time we came back was EXCELLENT. Jimmy, Jack, Jesse and their crew were fantastic. We will be back next year. Thank you to everyone who was involved in this trip.

• Pros: The Boat, The People, The Food & The Fishing
• Cons: NONE

Took the 8 hour trip on July 26th. My friend and I had a wonderful day. The crew was friendly & helpful.

And we caught more than enough fish for our cook out!

A day deep sea fishing on the "Two Georges" is a must when visiting Tarpon Springs.

Tried the boat and LOVED it!

I have recently become a fisherman on the Dolphin. It has been operating since 1947, I read the captain drove for two hours?.THIS IS AN EIGHTY-FIVE foot boat. ( expensive). If any of you have a boat, I am sure you realize for sixty dollars you can?t get too far. Well, I have fished the Gulf many times on party boats.Anyone who knows about fishing knows that a captain is NOT happy catching SHORT grouper, they don?t cross the dock. A captain willing to move and look for fish is an excellent captain. Deckhands DO throw pinfish overboard at the end of the day. To-go boxes for fish are usually provided at restaurants, not fishing boats. So as I said, I had to try the boat. I also found the former employee, based on the captain, is indeed a good captain. He has no problem with this flagging competitor, other than the fact that the trademark name of the business is being used. I noticed horrible spelling and grammatical errors. I don?t by live bait, I buy it. One might ask myself, not my self. One would READ reviews, not rear them There is no such thing as a pin fish, it is a pinfish. . A captain would fish more THAN move not then, as in past tense. The words "were aloud" indicates loud noises and not permission as in ?we?re allowed?. Sounds like you are a joy to fish with as well. Explain your motives about throwing my dead pinfish away. Perhaps they SMELL, they are DEAD? Good for you Dolphin on ridding yourself of an illiterate, ignorant customer.

Anyway, after a day of fishing on the Dolphin, I came home with a lot of grunts, one keeper grouper and a boat that I will fish on many times over the next few years. I fished for about four hours and enjoyed meeting company and eating the delicious food prepared by a lovely lady in the galley.

If you want to go out on a nice, clean boat with a friendly crew and a business that has established itself for almost fifty years, try the Dolphin.One more thing, A bad day fishing?.who ever heard of such a day!

• Pros: excellent service, inexpensive, relaxing, comfortable, nature-filled
