The captain and crew
Captain Hayes leads the operation and also works as a firefighter and emergency medical technician. The published team includes tarpon specialist Austin Stewart and captains Etienne Beaugrand and Steve Vanderbaan. Ask which captain and boat will run your chosen trip.

Nearshore fishing
Four-hour nearshore trips are listed at $700. Six-hour trips are $1,000. These outings allow up to six guests. The shorter format gives families a way to try Gulf fishing without committing to a full day.
Tarpon trips
Published tarpon prices are $1,200 for six hours, $1,600 for eight hours, and $1,900 for ten hours. These trips carry no more than four guests. The operator recommends them for experienced anglers. Ask about the seasonal bite and whether the trip will fish the pass, beaches, or harbor.
Before booking
Rods, reels, and tackle are provided. Confirm bait, license coverage, refreshments, shade, and restroom access for the assigned vessel. The operator describes rescheduling or refunds for weather cancellations. Get the guest cancellation deadline and exact dock instructions with your reservation.
