What if the weather looks bad and I want to cancel?
We understand that you do not want to fish in horrible wind and rain. We want you to have the best trip possible!

If it is a fishable day, Captain Chuck will want to fish.
What payments do you accept?

Can you pencil me in and I’ll get back to you?
Sure, for a couple of days. Captain Chuck books up quick.
What will we fish for?
Captain Chuck fishes it all. We fish the sound, Destin and Pensacola Passes and the Gulf of America. Fishing varies with the type of trip and the time of the year. When Captain Chuck calls you, he will let you know what we are currently catching. Typically, we are looking for redfish, spotted seatrout, flounder, sheepshead jack crevalle, and black drum for our inshore trips. You never know what beast you may catch offshore!!
What do I need to bring?
You only need to bring whatever will make you comfortable on the boat. Pack a snack or lunch and plenty of water. Grab your sunglasses, sunscreen, a hat & go fishing!! The fishing part is all taken care of…bait, tackle, rods, reels, ice & licenses are included!
Do I need a license?
Nope. We’ve got you covered. If you are fishing on the beach or pier you will need one.

Absolutely bring your favorite rod or tackle, although you do not have to.
Do you fish with fly rods to fly fish?
We use inshore, light tackle for our trips…. You are welcome to bring your own fly rod!
Can I send my children on the trip without me?
Children are welcome but need a legal adult, parent or guardian to act as the responsible party for them if they are under 18 years old.
What if I just ride along and don’t want to fish?
Charters are available for 4-6 people and anyone on the boat counts toward that total.
Are lifejackets available?
Lifejackets are available at all times to children and adults upon request. If you would like to bring your own that is more comfortable, you are welcome to.
Is alcohol allowed on the boat?
Yes, alcohol is allowed for all legal age adults in can or tumblers. We do ask that you can maintain control of yourself and your party. Don’t make us call the Coast Guard! Seriously, make sure someone can drive you home.
Will our pictures be on a blog or social media?
We will take pictures of your catch throughout the day to use on our Facebook page, Instagram, Google+, and Pinterest. The captains may also use video footage to create videos from the season.
What do we do with the fish?
We encourage conservation to keep the fisheries growing. That being said, if you want and the fish you catch are legal, and edible, we will clean them and bag them up.
