We usually catch fish, but with fishing there are no guarantees. We always do our best to find the fish that you are looking to target, but sometimes luck isn't with us.
That's why they call it fishing not catching.
What time do we leave the marina?
We recommend being at the boat at 6:00 AM for departure.
Though, if you would like to change that, please feel free to request another time. Marina open up at 6 am to buy fishing licenses. Best to buy your licenses the day before the charter.

As per the industry standard, there are no refunds if you do not catch fish.
Can we take the fish home?
Yes. Cleaning and filleting your fish is included with your trip.

What about the weather?
Conditions can vary greatly. If we cancel your trip due to inclement weather conditions your deposit will be refunded in full or transferred to another trip on a better day.
What about motion / sea sickness?
We cannot stress enough how important it is to take preventative measures for sea sickness. Over-the-counter medications such as Dramamine and Bonine work very well when taken the night before, and then again one hour prior to boarding. If you are unsure that you are prone to motion sickness, we highly recommend taking these preventative measures. If you are sick we use a bucket NOT THE TOILETS.
