| What to bring? |
| Since the weather here on the west coast can vary from rain to hot sun, it’s best to wear layered clothing for the day and bring raingear if showers are expected, also bring sun glasses and some sun screen lotion. Make sure to bring your camera to capture those trophy fish moments. |
| Refreshments |
| We include a light snack and non alcoholic refreshment on every charter. We can also supply a box lunch for guests a very reasonable rate. We allow those who would like a couple beers to partake, but we retain the right to end a charter if our guides feel things are getting out of hand. |
