YOUR TRIP

BEFORE: Plan to arrive at the Charter Office between 5:00 and 5:15 am and be on the vessels by 5:30 am.

DURING: Our average is about 25 to 40 pounds but we’ve been known to bring fish up to 189 pounds. We use heavy weights to get down to the fish, so bring your muscles!

We have deckhands aboard to bait and help you in catching your fish.

AFTER: All of your fish are kept on ice on our boats throughout your trip and left whole to ensure the quality and freshness of your fish.

When you return to the docks with your fish, the deckhand will take your fish up to be photographed.

We offer a fillet and vacuum-packing service on-site. You may take your fish home whole, filleted, vacuum-packed. Quick freeze and storage are available.
