Here are the trips I offer, each designed with your ultimate fishing experience in mind. I spare no expense to ensure your trip is exceptional. If better fishing requires a longer run, I’ll make it without hesitation, never worrying about the fuel burned. I strive to catch the freshest bait, and if that’s not possible, I’ll invest in buying the best available. While other charters might offer cheaper prices, remember: you get what you pay for.
Everything onboard—from the hooks to the line on your reels—is maintained in top condition. I use the finest fluorocarbon leaders, reels, rods, and, most importantly, a high-quality boat that guarantees a comfortable and productive trip. My dedication to putting you on fish and tailoring the trip to your preferences is unwavering. I'm willing to travel to wherever the best fishing is.
I hope you find the right trip for you below. If not, please give me a call, and let’s see if we can make your dream fishing trip come true.
Regards,
Capt Vaughn
