Answer: We will make every effort to take you fishing on the day you have booked us. If we cannot make a trip because of adverse weather we will offer you the next available day

Question: Is there anything I need to bring on a charter besides food and drink?
Answer: Yes, sunglasses and a hat, sun screen, you may want to bring a camera and we will allow you to bring tackle if it is suitable for saltwater fishing. (We realize some anglers have their own favorite or lucky tackle and we will rig it for the type fishing we will be doing.)

Question: What is Light Tackle?
Answer:  Light tackle is fishing tackle fitted with 6 to 30 pound test line, and most is spinning tackle. This tackle gives you the most action and does not require brute strength but finesse to land a fish. It is fun and gives the fish a fighting chance. It is light enough that women and children can handle it and enjoy the thrill of saltwater sportfishing.
