You Asked, We Answered
WHAT SHOULD I BRING?
Bring any snacks or beer you’d like (no glass bottles), and we’ll provide water onboard. Lunch is included on full-day trips, and don’t forget to pack sunblock to stay protected while you’re out on the water.
WHAT KIND OF TRIPS DO U OFFER?
Depending on the time of year, we target different species, but if you have a particular fish in mind, we can focus on that specifically. A few days before each trip, I’ll touch base to put together a game plan so we’re ready to go. Every trip can be customized to fit your needs and make sure you have the best experience possible.
