These trips are either 4,5, or 6 hours. They are designed for the novice fisherman, families with young children and groups just pushed for time. With morning and afternoon departures available, these trips are easy to fit into any hectic vacation schedule.
More info
The price of the charter includes all bait, fishing license, tackle and ice. There is a 1st mate on all charters who works very hard to help you catch fish and when you return to the dock will cut, clean, ice and bag them for you. A standard tip for the mate is 15-20% of your total charter. The crew works very hard so if you are pleased and wish to give more it is truly appreciated!
