Your chances of catching a ray while shark fishing are pretty high. They are a blast to fight with!

Absolutely. The bat is a great area and I am sure is good when the weather conditions are better

The ride in and out can be bumpy, but anyone can be successful on this fishing trip!

go with this crew and boat. It is a much larger boat and thus would help if the sea is rocky.

Take a bay fishing trip first, 4 hours leaves plenty of time left for beach and family

Always remember that it is fishing...... Not catching . It can never be a sure thing

Get a knowledgeable Captain and charter away... the area is too nuanced to just wing it.
