"Wayne & JJ. Wow what a dynamic duo. They will help you in everything to ensure a fantastic time... reals to wind up, tuna to land, arm-screaming fun and the biggest grin on your face!"

"Excellent time with Wayne and Jay Jay. They put on stunning weather and a great set up. They fed us and helped us land a Wahoo which we filleted and took home with us - delish!"
