Book your next trip with Akula Charters and find out what makes the fishing in St. Francis Bay so unique.

These waters are known for Yellowtail Amberjack, Yellowfin Tuna, Musselcracker, Bluefish (Tailor), Skipjack, and more – with any luck, you'll have tight lines in no time.

You can expect to do some spinning, popping, trolling, drifting, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area. Capt. Jonathan also offers fly fishing, but you may need to bring your own fly gear. For the more adventurous among you, there's bowfishing.

Children are welcome, so get 'em offline and onto the water! If you don't have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there's one on board. And, you can't go wrong with snacks!

Your boat for the day is a 28' Sportfishing that can carry up to 8 passengers. It comes with outriggers, all the essentials no fishing machine can run without.

You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, along with 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 may be off limits or require a special tag, so make sure you know what to expect.

You can't go wrong when you bring sunscreen (non-spray), sunglasses, and bottled water. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, so long as you avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Your trip with Akula Charters is just a click away, so why not make it happen?
