    Fishing was great 7/18/26. Combo trip. This is a nice clean boat and Dwight had us on fish quick. Deckhand Garrett stellar. He was on boat last year. Bob good helper as well along with Dwight we slayed em. Back to dock early. Looking at openings to book another one still this season possibly. If not will see them next year.

    Went bottom fishing with my son-in-law and a couple of his friends. The first mate and Captain showed great pleasure in help us catch the most fish possible. They were truly kind and helpful. The bathroom facilities were clean. I highly recommend them for any future trips.

    Absolutely a class act and the best boat, captain, and deck hands I've ever known - East Coast or West. Dwight and crew make everyone on the boat feel comfortable, from veteran charter fishermen to first-timers. Dwight is unique. He understands the fishing trip is about the experience for each person on the boat - for some it's all about the fish, for others it's about the trip or ensuring a child has a blast on the ocean. Dwight and Joseph get to know each person and make the experience about "YOU." My 80+ father had hung up his fishing pole until we talked him into "one more trip" on the Tornado. Dwight and crew created an amazing experience for him. We've gotten him out every year since. I can't say enough about how good of people Dwight, Cassie, Joseph, Garrett, and the whole Tornado family are. Thank you for amazing trips....every single time. And thank you for getting us on the fish....every single time! Fish on!

    I’ve fished on many charters in Westport for the last 30+ years. I just got back from a halibut trip with them. By far the best experience across the the board. The boat is big, comfortable, & immaculate. The Capt (Dwight) is one one of the nicest & most humble guys you’ll run across. His crew ((Mike & Joe) are extremely hard working, quick, and friendly. Fishing on the Tornado in Westport is a no brainer !!!!
