What to Bring

Fishing:


All the fishing rods and reels will be supplied, Bait and tackle including artificial baits, live bait, frozen bait, and chum. I am a captain so anyone on board is covered by my license, I will have Ice and a cooler for you for your drinks that you will bring. Remember We can and will filet and bag your catch if you would like us to…

Bring all your food and drinks. If you want to bring beer you should clear it with the charter Captain first.

Bring a ball cap or a fishing hat to protect you from the intense sun. Remember the ocean intensifies the suns glare and can cause you to burn much quicker than on land.

Bring sun glasses. Preferrably polarized fishing glasses to lessen the sun’s glare that reflects up off the water.

For the same reason you wear your hat on the water you will want plenty of sun screen especially if you easily burn. The suns effects are doubly strong on the water and without sunscreen can cause you to burn very quick.

Also depending on what type of fishing you will be doing you may need a large cooler for your fish. Something on shore or in your vehicle, At least something to carry your catch home in.

A duffle bag is a good idea to bring for carrying your rain gear, extra tee shirt, hat, and other personal items that you need to bring on a salt water fishing trip.

Not as important on a large sportfishers with the luxery of a “floating family room” with all the amenities but on vessels without a cabin you certainly should bring some rain gear or foul weather gear.

Bring a camera to take snapshots of those big game fish you release and better yet bring your video camera to capture the charter fishing action.

If you get sea sick or aren’t sure if you get sea sick then it is a very wise idea to take your Dramamine before you leave the dock. Nothing can ruin a fishing trip worse than a guy named “RALPH”.

Scalloping:

For the same reason you wear your hat on the water you will want plenty of sun screen especially if you easily burn. The suns effects are doubly strong on the water and without sunscreen can cause you to burn very quick.

Bring all your food and drinks. lunch is optional depending on whether or not you want to taste the local flavor at one of the restaurants on the river.

If you have your own gear bring it, I will have some extra stuff if needed.

After you get out of the water we will stop by the spring to rinse, if you would like to be nice and dry, you d better bring a towel….
