If you follow guides instructions, you will catch as many fish as you desire. Dress for the conditions and dress in something you donโ€™t mind getting a little wet. Great experience.

This was our first trip like this and we went out for 5 hours. That might have been a bit long for newbies. But we had an amazing trip and would definitely do it again!

listen to the captain about whats biting that time of year. Fish migrate a lot with changing water temps, so you need the local knowledge on whats hitting best for certain times of the year.

Be prepared for anything. Don't expect to always catch fish. Listen to your captain and crew. Sunscreen, cooler of water, and motion sickness meds if needed before you headout. It's an experience it gets better the more you learn.

Fishing here is great, but it is still fishing. Bad days happen, and there is nothing a boat captain can do about a day when the fish just wonโ€™t cooperate.
