It's all about the weather in the fall. We lucked into a 2.5 ft at 9 seconds day with plenty of sunshine and a light breeze. It was the first day in 8 the boat was able to get out on the ocean due to the weather.

Be prepared for weather, except what you get and make the best of your day on the water. Lots of water and sun block

The weather was perfect. Light winds, calm sea, moderate temperature. The fish were biting consistently.

Just enjoy your trip and do an arm workout before because you WILL be tired.

Book a charter during the busy season. Shore fishing is way too hard with all the people.

We went at the end of August. However, keep in mind that the fishing experience is completely dependent on the weather at the time. Which is a luck of the draw.

Be open to catching what is biting. If searching for a particular species I would recommend starting with catching what is biting and then search for your particular species toward the end. Captain Charles knows the water and what is biting. Listen to him.

Communicate with your captain and first mate to know what to expect. Captain Duke and his first mate, Dillon, were professional, knowledgeable, and knew what they were doing and communicated what was biting and how far off shore we would be. If you have any questions, just ask.

Fishing was good but it is slow in August. However you should watch the seasons etc. we had a great time regardless

Bring your muscles! The poles are heavy! Do a long trip if you want the freezer full! This trip was just a taste.

Tip generously. These guys work hard and are very tuned into the needs of their passengers.

What a great environment, caught a lot of fish, some small and most pretty large, I would do it again in a minute. Definitely a high of my fishing career,

If you’re prone to seasickness make sure you have something to take. My husband was nauseated most of the trip after we got out to the fishing grounds.

The tide cycles and full moon affected the amount of fish active to some degree on our trip. That being said, everyone on the boat caught multiple fish. Also, as kids go back to school at the end of the month there are less charters on the water

I would suggest that you hire a local guide. It will save you time and the headaches of trying to find the best spots to catch fish.

Ribbon fish seem to be what most captains target right away. If you want to fish for other species, make the captain aware early on

Listen to Mike! We had a boat full of people who have fished their entire lives but have little experience fishing inland waters. Mike was extremely knowledgeable and put us on a lot of fish considering the weather we were facing.

This place is a hidden gem. We probably caught close to a dozen different species of fish and filled up an entire cooler of fresh fish. Had a blast. Even my 4 and 6 year old girls had a blast hanging out on the boat. Highly recommend checking Roman and Cedar Island out.

Our trip was supposed to be near shore however because of high waves created by hurricane the fishing trip was in the sound. This was not an issue for us and we still had a great experience.

Make sure to bring sun screen since you’ll be out in the direct sun. The boat has an inside area that’s spacious where you can store your coolers, food, etc. The boat has a bathroom and the deck has plenty of room to stand, sit, etc. Mostly what we saw while fishing nearshore were Mackeral. You keep what you catch and the deck hand was nice enough to cut and filet the fish for us
