Two captains and a Hatteras
The biographies describe Jade as a marine-biology graduate and divemaster, and Zoli as a marine mechanic and dive instructor. Both are listed as 200-ton Master captains. Their fishing programs place emphasis on explaining tackle and helping inexperienced guests.
The twin-diesel Hatteras has shade, a bathroom, live-bait storage and fish boxes. Private trips take up to six guests. The published equipment includes Shimano reels and Chaos rods for several methods, with smaller tackle available for children.
Reef or offshore
Reef and wreck trips can use bottom rigs, live bait and vertical jigs for fish such as snapper, grouper, jacks and kingfish. Family outings emphasize manageable tackle and nearshore action. The route still depends on safe conditions.
Offshore options include trolling, kite fishing and deeper presentations for mahi, tuna, wahoo, sailfish and other fish. Discuss the target before choosing a duration. A short family trip and a focused deep-water outing have different demands.
Hours and current pricing
The site advertises private four- to eight-hour choices starting at $750. Longer-trip prices vary between the general and specialist pages, so obtain a quote for the exact reef, offshore or family package. The starting price is for the boat, not six separate tickets.
Ask the captains to itemize bait, licenses, drinks, ice, cleaning and gratuity in the confirmation. Also discuss the food your group should bring. The listed fish calendar should not be used as a current harvest-season notice.
Alsdorf Park and weather
The published meeting point is Alsdorf Park Boat Ramp on NE 14th Street. Confirm where the Hatteras boards, parking and the arrival time with the captains. Tell them in advance about children’s ages and any boarding concerns.
The website offers a full refund or free reschedule when weather is unsafe. Obtain the ordinary customer-cancellation deadline and deposit conditions as well. Those details are separate from the captain’s decision about whether the boat can safely go out.
Details checked October 4, 2026, using the operator’s published information. Rates, boats, meeting points and policies can change; confirm the final trip details directly. Listed species describe possible targets, not a guaranteed catch or an open harvest season.
