What to Bring:

Everything is already onboard: Fishing License, life-jackets, live bait, spinning rods, and sharp hooks. There's bottled water in the cooler. You may bring some snacks in case the crew gets hungry. Small, soft coolers may be stowed beneath the console. We have access to several public restrooms if anyone needs a break. There is also have a small, private head (toilet) onboard.

For Your Information:

• I maintain an AED, EpiPen, and an IFAK Trauma first aid kit onboard.
• Dress in layers for seasonal weather and water conditions.
• Please dress conservatively as this is a family-friendly environment.
• There is some shade under the T-Top, but I suggest wearing a hat, long-sleeve shirt, and shoes.
• Eye protection is highly recommended.
• Please do not wear cologne, perfumes, or body sprays as your captain is allergic.
• There is minimal space onboard. Please leave large coolers in your vehicle.
• Hydration and sun-protection prevents injury.
• Please apply sunblock prior to boarding. The chemicals in sprays will kill the bait fish and makes the deck very slippery. Only reapply lotion-based sunblocks during your trip.
• Sea-sickness can be prevented with supplements or OTC medicine several hours in advance.
• Payment options for any remaining balance are: Cash (preferred), Apple Pay, Venmo, Zelle, and Check. I do not have a credit card reader.
• 15-20% gratuity is customary for the captain and greatly appreciated.

Red Snapper

Red snapper season is my near-shore angler’s favorite. It’s an easy way to fill the cooler up for one of our “catch-&-cook” restaurants. These fish are delicious and solid fighters. 

The 2024 regular season is June 1 - July 31. The season will reopen in the fall for 3-day weekends (Friday – Sunday) from Sept. 1 – Nov. 30. Harvest will also be allowed Labor Day (Sept. 2), Veterans Day (Nov. 11) and Thanksgiving Day (Nov. 28).

Smoking and Vaping are prohibited aboard "Dress Blues".

Anglers may have a few drinks long as they do not become a safety risk.
