Your fishing machine for the day is a 48' Sportfisher with room for 29 passengers. It comes with outriggers, downriggers, everything you need for a productive day on the water. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. We can accommodate someone in a wheelchair chair. Boat has a huge back deck for lots of fishing room.
You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, as well as lures. Live bait is included, but you should ask the captain whether you'll be catching it yourself.
You'll have the help of a First Mate and sometimes 2 to put you on fish. Mates work hard to make your trip count, so a 15-20% tip is customary.
The charter boat covers your fishing license, so all you have to do is show up ready for a good time! Keep in mind that you may release some fish due to regulations. If you don't know what to expect, ask the captain or mate.
Some essentials to bring are sunglasses, bottled water, and sunscreen (non-spray). If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed.
