You can expect to do some, trolling, drifting, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area. Capt. Eric also offers fly fishing, but you will need to bring your own fly gear and having experience fly fishing is highly recommended.

Trips with Stella Charters are kid-friendly, so feel free to make a family day out of it! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. Snacks are also a good idea to bring so that nobody gets grumpy on an empty belly!

Capt. Eric will bring you aboard a 29’ NauticStar 28XS Offshore center console with room for 6 passengers. It comes with outriggers and all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. There’s a toilet on board for your convenience. You’ll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you. Live bait is included, but you should ask the captain whether you’ll be catching it yourself.

There’s no need to buy a fishing license, just show up ready for some fishing! Keep in mind that some fish may have harvest limits or closed seasons. Your captain will help you follow regulations while you fish.

It’s never a bad idea to bring a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen (non-spray). Bottled water will be available for you. Alcohol is allowed in MODERATION!!!

NO GLASS BOTTLES ALLOWED AND AVOID HARD LIQUOR !!!
