Looking to get the whole family outdoors? Kids are absolutely welcome! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. Feel free to bring your own snacks so that everyone stays happy and energized!

Capt. George operates a 21' Bay Boat with space for 4 passengers. It has all the essentials. Rods, reels, tackle, and lures are provided.

Before coming aboard, you may be required to purchase a local fishing license for everyone in your group. 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.
