are welcome, so go ahead and bring the whole family along! If you don't have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there's one on board. Feel free to bring your own snacks to stay fueled throughout your trip!

Your day begins aboard a 23' Center console that holds up to 6 passengers. It has all the essentials no fishing machine can run without.

Your captain will provide rods and reels, as well as lures. Live bait is on offer, but it's good to ask about this so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.

You might need to purchase a local fishing license before the trip. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species might be protected or require a tag to keep them, so make sure you know what to expect.

It's never a bad idea to bring bottled water, sunscreen (non-spray), and sunglasses. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Go ahead and treat yourself to a day on the water with BoneFish Charters.

4 HR PM Saltwater Fishing on June 28, 2025

Captain Steve was an awesome fishing guide for me and my son. As beginners, we really appreciate how patient and helpful he was throughout the trip. We had a great time and had a fun and memorable day! I would definitely book another trip with BoneFish Charters!
