At that point in time we will drop our rigs in trolling for whatever might bite which are blue fish Spanish mackerel false albacore and then slowly head out off the beach where the fish get bigger. We will end up on a couple racks and on a pile of rocks searching for some of the best fish that you can eat and let's don't forget looking for a good fight. This will be a 10-hour

Full day near shore
5/5
We booked a 10 hour near shore, sadly the week we came down we had some rough weather so couldn't get much past the inlet but did have a pretty good time fishing the inlet and sound. Zach and Noah were awesome with the kids. And the boat was in great shape and well kept. Nobody on the water caught much that day but we still managed a pretty good catch of blue and some Spanish mackerel. Along with plenty of Spanish a bit too small to keep.

Great near shore experience!
5/5
Our group of four caught 30-40 Spanish Mackerel and Bluefish in about 2 hours time which was fun for the kids. We had two kids this was their first charter experience. They
are ready for another experience as soon as they can.
