Captain Frank and the boat

Taylor’s biography traces his interest in these waters to visits with his father decades ago. His guiding methods include light tackle, popping corks and drift fishing, adjusted to tides and seasonal patterns.

The listed boat is a 24-foot Carolina Skiff with a 115-horsepower Yamaha, GPS, fish finder and livewell. The operator describes space for up to six guests; confirm how many anglers the selected fishing package includes.

Trip choices and prices

The booking menu lists four-hour fishing outings from $450 and six-hour options from $550. Scalloping trips are also advertised in four- and six-hour formats at those starting prices. The final quote depends on the selected package and party.

Fishing can target redfish, trout, flounder and other seasonal inshore species. Scalloping is a separate swimming activity, and the captain can discuss combining interests where suitable. Confirm the applicable open season rather than relying on a general summer description.

Inclusions and cancellation policy

The captain page lists rods, reels, tackle, live bait, lures, fishing-license coverage and snorkeling gear among the provided equipment. Bring food, drinks, sun protection and a cooler for retained fish.

A deposit is required, with the remaining balance due on the trip date by card or cash. The posted policy requires guest cancellation at least three days before the trip for a deposit refund. If the guide cancels for weather, health or equipment issues, guests can reschedule or receive their deposit back. Confirm these terms and the meeting address with the booking.

Details checked September 26, 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.
