FISHING TRIPS:  

WHAT: Custom trips to area inshore fishing spots, artificial reefs, and wrecks. We also specialize in surf fishing trips to local barrier island beaches.
Methods of fishing will vary from sight casting, trolling, bottom fishing, and live baiting. No experience is necessary and we welcome children ages 7 and up.

INCLUDES: All required fishing licenses, tackle, rods/reels, bait, ice, fuel, and fish cleaning service.  Customers must bring their own sunscreen, drinks, food, small cooler, and any other personal gear. 

RATES:
HALF-DAY (4-hours): $400 total
FULL DAY (8-hours): $600 total

Rates are for 1 to 6 anglers. Although the boat can accommodate up to six anglers, this can make for rather tight quarters, and does not allow everyone to fish at the same time. An ideal number of anglers is 2 to 4, but the choice is ultimately yours!
Three quarter day trips can also be arranged if you would like to extend a half-day trip.

Deposit:
$150 deposit required at time of reservation.
A 14-day advance notice of cancellation is required for a full refund. If the trip is cancelled by the captain due to inclement weather, a full refund will be given.
