Mr

Wow. What an experience. For the first time fishing in Greece and for the first time having a chance at a big game predatory fish, the experience was amazing. Having only two people on the boat plus the captain allows for good focus for when the fight is on. Stelios Morfis smart and intelligent and amazing captain. Continuous support and communication and great conversation every moment of the trip. Thank you for the amazing time we had together. Small boat big fish and bigger dreams.
