You can leave any additional coolers dockside for your return and purchase ice from the local 7 Eleven if needed.

* The fish you catch are yours to keep. The mate cleans and fillets the fish for you. You can thank them thru the tip you give them.
* Bring a camera, if you wish. We will take your e-mailed pictures and post them on this site!
