Important Information & Frequently Asked Questions
What should I bring?
We recommend Smart Shield sunscreen but your choice is fine. Also a lightweight shirt sunglasses, and a hat would be desirable. You should bring your lunch, drinks and plenty of sunscreen.
What about seasickness?
Since we fish in shallow water usually we don’t have anyone to get seasick. If you are VERY sensitive we recommend a good night sleep, no alcohol the night before, and light meals for dinner and breakfast. There are several over the counter medications or wristbands. Ask you local pharmacist. If these make you drowsy, ask your doctor about prescription motion sickness medication.
What about a tip?
You can tip as much or little as you like but 10-15% is normal. Thank you! And kissing the fish is entirely optional!!
What if our party is larger than 4-5 people?
We have availability to put approx. 100 fishermen in separate boats on the water at any given time with advance notice. Large parties are no problem.
Do I need to bring any tackle or bait?
No. All are provided for you. Unless you want to wade fish, then you do need your rod and reel and wading equipment.
If you want to wade fish, you need to bring your own rod, reel and wading equipment.
Do you provide fish cleaning?
Yes. We clean the fish for you once we return to the dock. Your choice: boneless fillets, Redfish “half-shells” (ready for the pit) Just don’t forget a cooler to take them home in!

Our cancellation policy is as follows:
