The charter concentrates on the inlet and nearby shorelines, offering a short, productive stretch on the estuary where anglers can fish without long runs offshore.

THE GEAR

Minimal prep—tackle and bait are supplied

Everything you need to fish is provided aboard: bait, tackle and rods are included so guests can focus on casting and landing fish rather than packing equipment.

Short, social charters for friends and family

At three hours, the trip is tailored to groups who want a compact outing—an afternoon on the water for families and friends without committing to a full day.
