Things to Bring
- Windbreaker. This will protect you from spray and keep you warm on early morning starts.
- Shorts are great when it is a hot summer day.
- Pants are great when it is a cold morning or evening
- Light weight shirt. Wearing a shirt will protect your arms and shoulders from sunburn. Linen is perfect for keeping the heat away from your skin.
- Light colored clothing. This reflects the sun to keep you cool in hot weather.
- Non-skid rubber soled shoes. Sneakers are perfect. Flip flops are not recommended!
- No Black sole shoes. This will help from making marks on the boat.
- Seasickness medication. If you’re prone to seasickness stock up on over the counter remedies before you leave. Bonine® and Dramamine® are particularly effective but should be taken a couple of hours in advance of the trip. It’s always best to avoid combining anti-nausea remedies with coffee. Lastly, avoid having too much to drink the night before if you want to have a puke-free trip!
- Sunscreen. Make sure to get one that protects from both UVA and UVB rays.
- Lip balm. Lip balm with sun protection will stop your lips getting chapped out on the water.
- Hat. Hats with brims provide shade and decrease the risk of sun stroke.
- Polarized sunglasses. These will cut through the glare on the water to give you a better view of your target fish. Sunglasses are a must though!
- Waterproof jacket and rain pants. These are essential if you come across bad weather
- Food/Drink. Bring any food and drink that you wish. A sensible amount of beer or wine is permitted. Please do not show up intoxicated to the charter.
