| We read one bad review that had us wondering how our experience would be, so we went in a day early to check things out. This was our first time there. The woman was very helpful and friendly. She advised us to arrive at 0630. The next morning we went at 0615 to relax and have coffee. Seems like we were some of the last people to arrive. This makes a difference, because the only place to set up was on the bow of the boat. The other places were taken. Considering the type of fishing we were doing it really didn't make a difference, except if you get sea sick, because the bow moves a lot more. Guess that's why the restrooms are up front.
There were two deck hands that day and when approached, were very helpful and friendly. Oh... the dog (one of the deck hands dog) on our trip was also friendly and we enjoyed his company also. I think that a little more explanation of the event should be explained (especially to first timers) before departure, such as how to set up, how to reel in your fish, how the day will go, etc......We both caught our limit, even though the fish were really small. I took a few pictures, but I was so sea sick that I just couldn't take very many. The wife seemed ok though. We concentrated on catching fish.
I might ad that the captain, did an exceptional job to get us to the fish. In my opinion this is an experience that we will remember for a long time. We highly recommend Randy's. The website just about tells you all you need to know to make a decision about which service to use. To all at Randy's - We Thank You |

| Walked into the office, gave Pete the Zserve tickets, rented rods and lures and boarded the boat. Took off to Pt Sur and caught some tasty Rock Fish. The only thing I noticed was now when you break off and loose your gear, they make you pay 5 for a new rig, guess thats the new economy. |

| I don't know what to say, but my brother, friend, and I had a real good and bad ass time fishing with Randy's. To start things off when my friend rented the fishing pole setup they provided him with the cod rig and weight, which was pretty sick. I guess I shouldn't have bought all of the 11 cod rigs that I did the day before because I didn't even lose one rig that day. The boat had a fish finder and the captain would announce when to drop and how many winds to setup the rig at the right place where the fish are, which was really accurate. We stopped at mulitple spots in search for the Lings and other rock cods. This day out I noticed one guy catch a good sized keeper Ling, and I myself caught one but it was only 21 inches, damn it, but still had one helluva time. We all caught our limits still, and had one hell of a meal when we got home. The crew helper, I thinks his name was Josh or something like that was a real helpful guy who helped unsnag my setup from the bottom a few times until I asked him on how to take it out myself which was really helpful. He helped with many tangled setups throughout the trip. At the end you can get your fish filleted by him too for 10 bucks. Super sick day out, and look forward to doing it again with Randy's, Hightly Recommended and good times. |

| It was fun. I caught my limit. We saw whales, sea lions and a beautiful coastline along the way. The captain and the mate were helpful. However, my kids were both sick the whole time due to motion sickness. Fortunately there was enough room for them to lie down on the cushioned benches. |

| The day started slow. Not many fish. The captain keep at it until he found a spot that provided quality fish and enough for limits for all on board. The deck hand was very helpful and keep everybody's line in the water as much as possible. Will do this trip again as soon as time and funds allow. |

| The sales rep at the counter beliittled me in front of all the employees and customers that were present because i did not print out the tickets. He then threatened to not let my partners and I on the boat but quickly reversed himself, as if he was trying to aggrivate me. He also tried to charge me twice and said he had to call in to confirm that i had paid using zerve. A min later he looks through a list and verify's my partys tickes, again i feel he was trying to add adittional aggrevation. The whole time checking he would not stop telling me how i could not follow directions and how i need to learn how to read them and follow them. The fishing trip was worse, the boat did not even go more than 20 min out. The captain was not helpful at all and no one in my party caught a single fish. The captain did not perform his duties to full potential, a supermajority of the boat did not catch fish. Two hours into the dreadful trip a passenger had an emergency and we had to return back to the docks, lucky we were only 10 min outs. About 70%-80% of the boat members were so upset they decided to get off there also. For my party it was a few first time being out there so when the captian announced he was going back out there we all agreed to go also. But we go back to the same freakn spot were there are no fish. Even after several complaints and requests the captain would not move. It seemed like everyone just took a nap till we came back to port. Again no one caught a single fish. My party and I usually take this trip at least 3 times a year so we know the potential and how it should be. The trip was ruined and no one was happy, and unless we get a refund, free pass or atleast a discount on our next trip, which is to be in sept., we will look else where for services. |

| When my party (5) and I arrived at the pier we were greeted by an elderly lady at the counter who was (incharge or registration/fishing licenses) very rude and spoke to us with no courtesy. I felt as if she wanted us to leave. Given it was early and clearly she did not want to be there, but we had been planning this trip for over a month and if Josh and the Captain didn't save the day by being VERY friendly and willing to teach us, then I would have demanded my money back.
Everyone has bad days, but it was not professional to be rude to paying customers.
Sincerely,
Oliver Dejillo |
