Policies

Our conservation ethic: We prefer catch and release on our inshore fishing trips. For those who wish to keep their catch, we follow all fishing regulations. We practice strict catch and release for inshore cobia due to overfishing. On nearshore and offshore trips, we focus on conservation-minded catch and keep. Our goal is to promote and protect the fisheries that keep our business thriving! You won't find any "kill shots" posted from our trips.

Nearshore / Offshore trips: Conditions permitting only. Nearshore / Offshore trips will not be cancelled if conditions inshore are favorable. However, trips moved inshore due to ocean conditions will be given the option to reduce the trip to 1/2 or 3/4 day and will be priced based on an inshore trip.

A non-refundable booking fee of $50 will hold your charter. Trip prices as listed do not include the booking fee.

Cancellations: Trips cancelled more than 1 week prior to the trip will not be charged. Less than 1 week prior will be charged the full amount of the charter (see pricing and trips for rates). Cancellations due to weather as determined by the Captain will not be charged and the booking fee refunded.

For large parties requiring multiple boats or double trips, an automatic 18% gratuity will be added to the total trip fee.
