Just listen to your captain and you should land fish. Also don’t bring bananas on the boat.

Listen to your captain and let home put you on the fish. Not all species are easy to catch year round

Hit the gym for a few weeks and work your arms and shoulders before taking these trips Get some rest, and eat two breakfasts before boarding

Check the size of the boat. Bigger doesn’t cost much if any more and increases your chances to head offshore.

Book the largest boat you can afford otherwise cancel if the boat will be undersized for mild surf or rougher.

Know whether you’d rather chase big fish or lots of fish. Captain will ask you as it changes where they will take you. Bring cash with you to buy bait fish out in the bay as well

If you’re with the right captain you can catch fish, but it’s fishing not catching. So just do your best and the captain will do his

Weather is nicer on the water than on land, but a lot of water and sunscreen is a must. Keep in mind the busy marina makes the waves a little bit choppy exiting and entering the spot.

If you are wanting the red snapper trip and have the time I suggest you book a longer trip than the 4 hour.

If you want a good amount of fish, do an 8 or 10 hour trip. Listen to the captain and crew, they are good at what they do. They want you to have a good time and want you to catch fish!

Don’t bring spray sunblock, it can damage the boat and makes the deck too slippery. Plan to get wet!!

Do it. Make sure you get the prescription sea sickness patch or get some over the counter if you have never been out in the ocean . Then all you need to do is have fun.

Just be careful about wave conditions. We had a rocky day but per Captain Clay’s recommendation of sea sickness patches definitely helped.

Don’t have your heart set on a specific fish. Just get out there and trust your captain to put you in a good position to catch something. After all, they do it every day and know what’s best.

Be sure to pack some drinks and snacks and plenty of sunscreen. If you go shark fishing, they fight very hard so be strong.

If you’re hoping for bigger fish, wait until June when it’s red snapper season. We brought home 19 pounds of vermilion snapper
