Success Stories

You want a trip of a lifetime book a charter with Mr. Long and Steven they both worked their butts off to put us on the fish. They put us on 5 big yf tunas which was huge especially since the tuna bite has been off lately.

Gray has a great boat and knows how to put you on the fish. We charter with him every year and he never disappoints. If you're on the fence, take it from me, book him you'll be glad you did!

Best offshore trip I've ever had. I will definitely be coming back. Captain Gray went above and beyond for our group.

- Nathan Fulmer

Gray and Steve took us out and we had a blast in less than optimal conditions, I plan on introducing more friends and family to this amazing fishery and Gray would be our Captain of choice.

Here is a captain that is not only knows what he is doing but also goes the extra mile to make your trip the best you have ever been on. I know he did it for us.

- Curtis Luna

I've been on several trips with Capt. Gray Long over the past few years. My groups have always had a great time and caught our targeted species. The Sea Hunter that he fishes is a excellent boat for fishing Yellowfin Tuna, Wahoo, AJ's and so much more. Gray is a great Capt and has only the highest quality equipment onboard.
