​

Cost: Includes tip for bait mate (trust me we all will go home with some fresh fish of value = ~$100+). If you have a great time feel free to give the bait mate an additional tip in cash.

​

​Bring your own food/snacks/drinks. Bring more than you think is enough as somehow, we get extra hungry/thirsty out at sea, The boat has cooler/ice for us to store our provisions. We can transfer our provisions to the boat cooler at the dock.

​

The boat will supply our rods/reels and bait.

​

Dress in layers. May be a little chilly in the morning but very hot sunny by mid-morning. We will be in direct sun all day while fishing so cover up accordingly. Bring sunglasses and a hat!

​

I would recommend everyone take some non-drossy Dramamine and hydrate well. Take 1 tablet the night before and 1 tablet before we leave the dock. Better to be prepared than to have a bad seasick experience.

​

​I am bringing a case of PBR beer and case of waters to share.

​

If someone wants to bring some donuts to share that would be great.

​

Be ready for a great day! I have used this charter for 10+ years and have always had a wonderful experience. The captain and mate are very friendly/accommodating with men who may have not charter fished before. The mate will bait the hooks and take the caught fish off as needed.

​

They will clean and bag up the fish back at the dock for each of us to take home. We all fish as a team and share all catch equally. Bring a small cooler to take fish home in.

​

​Traditionally, we do a fish fry of our catch at our house at ~7 PM. All family members are welcome to join us.

​

Last note. We have a saying in the Gothard home – “what happens on the boat men stays on the boat.”
