During summer, you can target flounder, croaker, weakfish, and other species on the back bays or the ocean. On an ocean trip, you may also target smaller tunas, sharks, and cobia during the warmer months. You can also head offshore for tuna, mahi, and wahoo.
The Spring and Fall offer stripers or bottom fish. You can jig, cast, or troll depending on what is working.
O.C. pick-up on request.
We don't claim to be the "best" and there are no guarantees. It is, after all, fishing. What we do promise is a professional, organized, experienced, and personable crew and our best efforts to put you on the fish.
The crew includes a mate to help you. Mates work hard and for tips. So please, a 15% gratuity for the mate is appropriate
