What do I need to bring?
If you are not ordering a box lunch, bring food and drinks, and weather appropriate clothing.

What time do we leave the dock?
The Bounty casts off at 7:00 a.m. unless a different time has been pre-arranged.  You should arrive at the dock 15 to 20 minutes before departure time.

Do I need fishing gear or a fishing license?
No.  Bounty's boat fishing license covers all passengers.  All fishing gear is provided.

What type of fishing is it, and what might I expect to catch?
Rockfish, bluefish, trout, hardhead, spot, perch, and Spanish mackerel (when in season) are caught by either bottom fishing or trolling.

Is There a Limit to the Size or Amount of Fish I can Catch?
Yes - please click on each fish for more information on size and amount limits.

How much does it cost to charter the Bounty?
6 hour trips are $330; 8 hour trips are $390. A $200 deposit is required. And remember - the mate works for tips only! (He's the guy that rigs your lines, helps pull the fish in, baits hooks for bottom fishing, etc.)

Can I bring alcoholic beverages on board?
Sure.

What if it rains?
Fishing trips take place in the rain. However, in cases of severe weather (high winds, hurricane warnings,high seas, etc.) Captain Chuck reserves the right to cancel a trip on or before the trip date.

What happens if my trip gets canceled?
If Captain Chuck cancels the trip before the Bounty has left the dock, you may make arrangements for another date.
