This captain is a good man and fisherman. I don't see why he would turn away customers. So I believe him.

I would strongly disagree. Bite has been very good for the boats I know as well as my own since the "opening". Haven't heard of a lot of big fish caught, but most the wrecks I've dropped on have good populations of aggressive fish.
