:rockingreport::rockingreport:I and a group of friends headed down to Virginia Beach beach for a 2 day fishing trip on the Fin-Finder out of Solomon's island. The weather was fantastic for both days and the fishing was excellent. Capatin Greg Buckner and his mate Andrew were top notch fisherman. Everything about the charter was great.

We got our limit of fish both days with the biggest at 44 inches.

Greg makes tackle which he uses on his boat and also sells. His lures are top quality.

What impressed me the most about the charter was the way Greg and Andrew treated his customers. He was very professionsal and answered any questions the party had. He did not give us 1 word answers like a lot of other charter boat capatins have given us in the past. They were willing to go the extra mile to explain their answers with detail. Even though both are very young, they have a lot of experience and have been influenced by multiple "old salt" captains out of Solomon's. The other gesture that impressed me was that Greg shook everyone's hands in the morning before we departed for fishing.

I have been on a lot of charter boats in the past; however this was the best fishing exeprience I ever had. These guys are the total package. I don't charter that often because I have my own boat; however I will be chartering the Miss Susie or Fin Finder again.

Thanks again guys for a great 2 days,
George

Greg has his act together for sure. Alot of guys on the board fish with him and usually his name is one of the first to be mentioned when anybody asks for advice on who to charter. Glad you guys had a good trip and the weather cooperated with you WTG :clap:

Lack of Mission Statement

Greg is the only charter fishing business I have seen with a mission statement.

His operation is top notch and both he and Andy are a real pleasure to fish with.

I hear ya George,
I rarely if ever take out charters anymore in the bay since I have got my boat set up but....
We ended up taking out the Fin-Finder with capt Andrew this fall with a bunch of UBBB guys
We all had a blast and they put us on fish all day, cant ask for a nicer capt and mate
All the equipment was top notch, lures were all perfect and kept clean
If I do another bay charter, no doubt who the first call will be to
Have been on several other charter boats where the capt was rude, equipment was run down, lures were S#$%ty, etc
I know there are many great capts on the bay, no dissrespect to any of them
For my money, you cant beat the whole package of Greg or Andrew's rig
Glad you guys got em!!
I am starting to go through withdrawal waiting for April
