| We arrived on time and was treated with great service at the counter. I have previously been on this trip in years past as this was a trip i took my father on around Father's day in June. Since my Father's passing i resumed to take my son on this trip and brought a bunch of friends along for the trip. The trip out to sea was not bad my only question was in previous trips I believe we drove farther south along the coast towards point Sur. This trip we didn't and its just my guess as to why not many fish caught on trip as previous years but could be due to overfished seas. But all in all it was a good experience that I would reccommend to others. |

| This was our second rock fishing trip with Randys, and we were successful again. The water was rough in the morning, but that is how it is. We all got our limit, and we will return again. |

My sons and I had a very good time.

| The crew was very helpful and the boat was in great shape.
The only bad note is that when I called prior to the trip I was told that $18 covered the pole, tackle, and sack. When we got to Randy's this was not the case, each was charged seperately. And when we wer told that our parking was validated we assumed we could park for free. Upon exiting the parking lot we has to pay $5 with our validated ticket. But all in all we had a great time and would go again. |

| Great outing for a group of friends. Everyone hit or came close to hitting maximum catch. Great location and views (when not completely foggy)
Only draw back was crowded boat (tangled lines every other cast) and no place to filet fish- had to pay. |

| For the most part, my husband and I enjoyed our trip. We saw that mostly everyone caught many fish. I would like to suggest that a list or notice of what tackle works best for the area. We are river fishermen and came out with too light of tackle and no guidance on what was the popular lure for sucess. We did catch a dozen or so fish so we had fun but would have done so much better had the experts advised us. At least regarding a min. sinker weight! |

| The process to arrange the fishing trip was very efficient and professional. Randy's establishment was clean and easy to access. The Captain did a good job in finding the schools of fish and the Mate did a fabulous job in assisting the fisher-men and -women. Be sure to tip the Mate good! |

Unable to reschedule. Too bad.

| This trip was for my stepfather. He was sick with food poisoning the night before and couldn't make the trip. We understand that we can't get a refund but wish we could reschedule for another trip without paying. |

Highly recomended

| We booked with Randy's but because their boats were full, we were sent to one of Chris's boats - the Star of Monterey.
Our group consisted of four sisters from Sacramento and the Bay Area. Two are experienced and two are novice fishermen.
It was an overcast day, water fairly calm, no white caps. The trip out to Big Sur took approximately 2 hours. The captain was great, he located a school of rock cod and from what I could see, everyone hooked up right away. Once the action slowed, the captain had us reel up and he found us another school in no time. We were "speed fishing" all day.
The boat was fairly full and our lines tangled with some of the other fisherman's which is common. Our deckhand Joey was awesome. He was everywhere at once untangling lines, helping us unhook fish and making sure everyone had a good time.
A number of people got sea sick, but everyone went home with their limit of fish.
I would recommend this trip to anyone that likes to fish or wants to learn. The captain and deckhand will teach you everything you need to know to catch fish, you just need to listen. |
