Definitely look into the weather before booking or speak with the captains before hand if you can.

Just be prepared for anything. No guarantee as to what or how much you will catch.

Book with Captain Drew. I fish charters multiple times a year. He ranks #1 with me

Make sure to bring sunscreen and water. Good sunglasses and a sunshirt is also recommended.

Sun screen and a great attitude. Can't get down if you aren't catching fish. Just keep at it

Fishing in the spring/summer/early fall is great, but for some reason fishing in December sucks.
