Even when weather may not be favorable for fishing, Saltwater Adventures turns the tide themselves! “We booked during a week of rough weather and high chances of bigger seas. Captain Tony was very up front about the situation but did not cancel incase the weather cleared. We were fortunate enough to get out in the morning and get some quality time at the wreck site. He refused to let us go home empty handed and we ended up with a 4 or 5 fish.” It’s all about the experience and knowledge of the captain, and Battista doesn’t disappoint.
