Spend the day with Salty Fishing Charters and let them show you what makes the fishing in Pelican Waters so memorable! Captain Dave will be your guide, giving you access to their knowledge and experience.

Depending on the season, you might hook into Pink Snapper, Pearl Perch, Green Jobfish, Cobia, Flathead, Sweetlip Emperor, Red Emperor Snapper, and whatever else takes the bait. During the trip you might be light tackle fishing, trolling, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.

Families who love fishing together will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. Customers are encouraged to bring snacks – luckily, Capt. Dave will have some on board!

You'll be dropping lines from a 34' aluminum fishing boat with room for 12 passengers. It comes with all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. Capt. Dave has rods and reels for you. Live bait is on offer at certain times, but you should ask the captain whether you'll be catching it yourself.

A First Mate will be there to make sure everything is running smoothly.

Your fishing license for the day is covered by the charter boat, 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.

Don't forget to bring sunglasses, a hat, and sunscreen (non-spray). Drinks will be available for you. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just be sure to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles. There will be food and some light snacks included on board.

And that's it! Your fishing trip with Salty Fishing Charters is just a click away.
