Capt. Brian with Thomason Tradition

Book with Captain Derek at Finnand Feather! He had us on great spots right away- even with recent stormy weather. The boat is very clean, well maintained, and has all the right amenities for a small group. I couldn’t have asked for more from his hospitality - an absolute miracle that he had availability for my last minute plans.

Listen to your Captain and crew always. You may know what you are doing but they know the water. Remember the more heads involved in a hunt the better the outcome, especially when you allow combined experience to work.

Fish w/Rock On Charter Fishing!!!

Bring a jacket and be flexible with weather. The captain will do his best to help maximize the catch but it really all depends on the current. We caught a croaker and 5 round heads. We saw dolphin and sting rays as well!

We had the most amazing time, laughing and fishing, but mostly laughing. Although the fish weren’t biting, it didn’t stop us from having the time of our lives. We have found our forever charter.
