I wouldn't give virgs a nickel of my money... they're the ones who fired brad without reason, without warning right before the season started 4 years ago.. worked out for the best, because that's how the endeavour ended up coming down from Oregon, but still, they screwed him over and they've screwed me over a number of times as well...
They're famous for taking 8 hour trips, parking the boat right out in front of the rock, getting everyone limits of the smallest fish you've ever seen, and then heading back in after 3 hours, no refunds because everyone got their limits...
They used to have the store front that morro bay landing has now... after Virg died many many years ago, his daughters just effed up the whole operation... lost their slip, lost their shop, lost their good boats... I'm told drugs were involved and i believe one of the sisters actuality o.d.'d 3 years ago...
Anyway, that's virgs for you.... btw, they're "shop" isn't even on the water.... it's like 3 or 4 blocks inland... if you go out with them, you've gotta go to the shop, get checked in, get back in the car and try to find the landing they're borrowing for that day... terrible...
I poked around a bit with the locals in morro... Asian fish market is the way to go according to them, especially for octopus...
