Ask questions to mention who hang out around the fish and bait shops asking questions. Ask for captain jack better yet spend some time with him and his boar. Captain jack is well diverse in boats, fish and great stories.

Evan Bortner
Ask questions of locals and tackle shop owners on where to go and what to use if first time fishing. September is late season for good fishing and can be spotty, but still enjoyable and successful if you know where to go and what they are biting on.

Reach out to Captain Michael - explain to him the group that will be going and he can help guide what fish you can go out with him to try and catch

Captain Jacks is a great inexpensive way to enjoy a few hours of fishing on the bay. October is not the optimal time here go fishing but the experience was still awesome

Frank Grosso
Good and easy trip. 3.5 hours on the water. Not too much rocking so if people get sea sick this may be the trip to take. Very easy.

Samuel Minnick
Listen to your captain. He knows the waters and the conditions. If you let them they will put you in the fish

Gloria Martin
Use a guide and research ahead of time for best fishing months for type is species you want to catch.

Fishing in the canal is pretty good this time of year. Be patient and have fun. Make sure to have blood worms, squid and power bait.

Most of the flounder had migrated to deeper water in July. Either fish earlier in the year, when the water is cooler or fish near shore if fishing in July.

Try switching between bait and jig for bottom fishing, some days one type of lure works significantly better than the other.

There are no guarantees you will catch anything, but the captains will try their best. Enjoy the experience no matter what.

To choose this charter and contact the captain in advance to select a type of fish and ask any questions you may have if this is you first time out.

Charter with Dave of Truetolife Outdoors or another charter and get out into the bay and fish the structures that are there or the reef sites in the bay.
