We provide on each charter:• Bait • Coolers and ice • Top of the line spin gear and tackle• All necessary fishing licenses, insurance, & fuel.
Reserving Your Trip: Plan in advance: it is best not to wait untill the last minute - It is not uncommon for us to have bookings and reservations for several weeks or months in advance. If your schedule allows, Let me look at the moon phase, tide charts, weather predictions, and a few other factors to give you the best scenario to fulfill your dream. Items you should bring :• Hat, sun protective clothing, & sunglasses (preferably polarized) * Please keep your items to a minimum. Stowage space is very limited.
