Communicate with the captain before going fishing so they can make sure and bring all the supplies you want or need for the type of fish you are wanting to catch (pending what is biting). Also if you're staying at a resort, they may not have breakfast ready until after you've left to go fishing so as your captain if they can bring breakfast, drinks and so on.
