If you're ready to experience fishing in The Bight Settlement, book a trip with Grand Slam Charters. With Captain Dario at the helm, you'll benefit from years of knowledge and experience.

These waters are home to Red Grouper, Wahoo, Mahi Mahi, Spanish Mackerel, Cero Mackerel, King Mackerel (Kingfish), Caribbean Queen Snapper, Yellowtail Snapper, and more with any luck. On the day of your trip you're likely to troll and bottom fish using light or heavy tackle.

Looking to get the whole family outdoors? Kids are absolutely welcome! If you don't have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there's one on board. Don't forget to bring snacks to stay fueled throughout your trip!

Your boat for the day is a 37' Intrepid walkaround with capacity for 10 passengers. It has outriggers, and all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. Capt. Dario has rods and reels for you, as well as lures. Live bait is available, but be sure to ask about it so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.

There will be a First Mate on board to help your trip run smoothly. A 10–20% tip is customary to show your appreciation for their hard work.

The charter boat covers your fishing license, so you can drive right over and come aboard without any hassle! Be mindful that some species may have special rules or limited seasons. Simply ask and your captain can tell you more.

A few items to bring include sunblock (non-spray), and sunglasses. Drinks will be available for you. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles. There will be some light snacks included on board.

Captain Joseph and Jeffrey are awesome
4 Hour Trip (AM) on May 26, 2026 • 3 adults • 1 child

Best trip ever. They put us on fish immediately. Caught 4 different species of snapper and some amber jack. Captain Joseph is OUR Captain. The kids felt incredibly safe in his hands. If it’s a guys trip or a family they have you taken care of. They have loads of drinks and snacks for you so just bring sunscreen and a joy of fishing, sit back and get ready to catch fish.
