Another guest said, "Booking this trip with very little idea of what to expect, from the first phone call to Curtis to the final moment when they cleaned and filleted our entire catch, everything exceeded our expectations. Curtis and his team went above and beyond. We will certainly be booking another trip on Max Drag with Curtis!"
