Full Day Fishing (approx 10 hrs) $800.00 ($30 additional charge for live pin fish for bottom fishing) This trip entails traveling up to 50 miles offshore in search of Mahi Mahi, Sailfish, Wahoo, Blackfin Tuna, Cobia, Tripletail, Grouper, Snapper etc.
Note: Live bait is a must for bottom fishing. We try to sabiki bait on the way to fishing grounds but it takes valuable time out of the charter and not always productive. Pin fish are caught one at a time around the port and I pay an individual $1.00 for each pin fish. I like to take at least 30 but the more the better. This is an additional charge so if bottom fishing is in your plans be sure to discuss how many pin fish you would like me to purchase.
Half Day Charter (approx 6 hrs) $600.00
This trip targets same species as full day but is limited on time and distance. Trips can be planned in the morning or afternoon.
Night Fishing (approx 10 hrs) $800.00
They say the monster fish come out and play at night and they're exactly right. We routinely catch these behemoths (shark,grouper,snapper,cobia,snook,etc) under the influence of the full moon. Each month we plan these trips within a 11 day window of the full moon (5 days before-5 days after). Look at my links page under moon phase-star date for the next full moon to plan your night adventure. An awe-inspiring rejuvinating experience under the star-lit heavens.
Yellowfin Tuna $2,900.00 (approx 16 hrs)
Location "The Other Side" Gulf Stream
Distance 60-100 miles
Migratory Season - May through September
This is ultimate fishing trip and my personal favorite. Crossing the stream puts us in the tunas' backyard. Birds take us to the fish as they hover and dive for scraps left by these massive schools feeding on surface bait pods.
We pick the action up on our 12kw radar approx 6 miles out. Once we get a visual we troll ahead of the schools direction of travel and swing the lures right across their path. We then buckle-in and get ready for the reels to scream. We usually hookup 4-5 powerful fish at a time and the reels start smokin; fight of a lifetime. On these outings we also routinely catch bill fish, blackfin, skipjack, wahoo and mahi mahi. An untapped resource, it gets no better than "The Other Side"
Dive Trips Same as half and full day
Specialty Spearfishing and Lobster Diving

Tip My mate (Paul) works hard for you to insure everything is just perfect for your fishing pleasure. He's there an hour before the charter and leaves two hours after we return (when the fish are cleaned and the boat is put back in order). He's been fishing at the port for over 30 years; its his backyard. He provides whatever coaching one might need with fishing and is great with the kids. He is absolutely the best mate at the port!! Suggested tip is 20%.
