On some trips you can bring your own rod and reel, tackle, and general gear. Usually for inshore flats or bay fishing we will let you use your own gear, light tackle etc. The boat rules will vary from one to the next so ask us what the policies are before you just show up with all your gear.

Things we supply:

• All the fishing rods and reels are supplied, though you are allowed to bring your own gear, If your not sure. Just Ask
• Bait and tackle is supplied. This includes artificial baits, live bait, frozen bait, chum, and etc.
• All water & ice is supplied.
• A fish box to store your catch so you won't need a cooler for fish. You will need something to carry your fish home in.

	Bring a cooler for food and drinks. Also depending on what type of fishing you will be doing you may need a large cooler for your fish. At least something to carry your catch home in.		A duffle bag is a good idea to bring for carrying your rain gear, extra tee shirt, hat, and other personal items that you need to bring on a salt water fishing trip.
	Bring all your food and drinks. If you want to bring beer you should clear it with the charter Captain first.		Not as important on a large sportfishers with the luxery of a "floating family room" with all the amenities but on vessels without a cabin you certainly should bring some rain gear or foul weather gear.
	Bring sun glasses. Preferrably polarized fishing glasses to lessen the sun's glare that reflects up off the water.		Bring a camera to take snapshots of those big game fish you release and better yet bring your video camera to capture the charter fishing action.
	Bring a ball cap or a fishing hat to protect you from the intense sun. Remember the ocean intensifies the suns glare and can cause you to burn much quicker than on land.		If you get sea sick or aren't sure if you get sea sick then it is a very wise idea to take your Dramamine before you leave the dock. Nothing can ruin a fishing trip worse than a guy named "RALPH".
	For the same reason you wear your hat on the water you will want plenty of sun screen especially if you easily burn. The suns effects are doubly strong on the water and without sunscreen can cause you to burn very quick.
