This was a great adventure for someone who likes to go on boats, but not sure he wants to rent his own. Boat bookers offer boat rentals with Captain for a reasonable rate. are captain was Brad Hurd, he was excellent and I hardly recommend him. He told the backwards of the bay went out to the Golf for a brief period then came back. We went up the imperial river and had a great adventure with manatees which was amazing. we got some great photos and videos with our interaction with the manatees which was priceless. Then we came back into Little Hickory Bay where Captain Hurd set us up with some fishing rods and shrimp bait and we caught several fish in 20 minutes. And the weather was perfect. This was a great day. I would highly recommend this outing and I hope to do it again soon thank you
