The guys picked some great spots for us to catch fish, we caught gurnard, mackerel & bass not bad for a bunch of amateurs. They tasted great on the barbeque ln the afternoon. I couldn't recommend Funfish trips highly enough, friendly, knowledgeable, patient & very helpful. We will be definitely be booking again. read less

I think everyone on board caught a fish my Grandson aged 9 on his first boat fishing trip caught 4 fish and he was chuffed to bits. We took two home to bbq and they were delicious. The gear on board was all new and of good quality. The skipper moved drifts a few times to ensure everyone had a chance and he took time to explain what to for the novices. We booked on line with no issues. The boat does leave promptly, check in at the hut in the harbour and make sure you have 5/6 mins to walk to the jetty. A positive experience I would recommend.

I saw throughout the prior week that winds were looking to be high, and Funfish kindly updated me in advance to manage expectations as to viability of safely getting out on the boat. Unfortunately, the weather was too rough (having gone to fish at the end of the Brixham Breakwater in what felt like a storm, I can certainly understand).

What I can really commend is the lengths that Funfish went to in order to manage expectations with respect to something completely out of their control. There was such commitment to ensuring happy customers. They made suggestions on where to shore fish, updated through the weekend to account for local knowledge and weather. read less

Aldan was relaxed, friendly and easy going but very competent and in charge of all proceedings. He showed us what to do and we had a great time, not wanting the trip to end. Came home with mackerel for tea :) Highly recommend this for a memorable day. read less

It isn't called fun fish trips for nothing! Our skipper was knowledgeable and great fun (with finger puppets and great singing!) and we caught more than enough fish for a family dinner! Couldn't beat it - an excellent trip - money well spent! read less

We were amazingly lucky to have one of the sea lions (Nelson) come to greet us at the side of boat as we got on. A lucky treat. Fabulously chatty Captain and crew. Booked on line the day before, was nice and easy. As a special birthday treat my daughter who turned 7 was able to drive the boat (long enough for a photo op) Would definitely do the trip again as it has been one of the best value for money things that we have done on this trip. Just don’t listen to the ferry boat staff telling you not to go on the pier when you can see the boat and it’s due to leave any minute. More read less
