Boat and fishing

The current boat description lists a 2024 18-foot Floyd 10 Weight skiff. Bonefish, tarpon and permit are featured sight-fishing targets. Other outings may pursue barracuda, jacks, redfish, snook, pompano and snapper. Ask which approach fits your casting experience and dates.

Trip choices

Four-, six- and eight-hour trips are listed. The rate page has more than one price schedule, so confirm the fare for your season and fishing type. Paul also offers instruction for anglers developing saltwater fly-fishing skills. Agree on the number of guests and boat setup.

Packing and equipment

Charter fishing-license coverage is supplied. Tell Paul if you intend to bring personal tackle so he can check its suitability. Ask about rods, bait, flies, ice, water and food storage included in your chosen trip. Polarized glasses and sun protection are useful on the flats.

Deposit and cancellation

A $100 deposit is listed, payable by Venmo or check. The policy asks for seventy-two hours’ notice, increasing to seven days during March through June. Its deposit wording is unclear, so confirm the refund deadline. Weather cancellations receive a refund or available rescheduling.

Details checked September 29, 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.
