A trip with Fin Chaser Charters comes inclusive with all the necessary equipment to make a great catch possible. You will be provided with rods, reels, tackle, and lures. If you decide to keep the catch, it can be cleaned and filleted for you at the end of the trip for you to take home with you and have for dinner later.
