About the trip

With a full day offshore, the extra time will give you an opportunity to fill up the cooler with meat to bring home, and also target big trophy fish. Heading offshore into the Gulf Stream, you'll chase Mahi, Tuna, Tripletail, Wahoo, and other pelagic fish. You'll have a first mate as well as all of the necessary equipment and live bait. Please bring your own food and drinks.
