Our fishing excursions take place on a 24’ Starcraft pontoon boat, accommodating up to 10 passengers comfortably. This modern vessel is equipped with a fighting chair, essential fishing gear, and a toilet for your convenience. Captain Skylar provides top-quality rods, reels, and lures, and live bait is included. Be sure to ask if you'll have the opportunity to catch your own bait, adding an extra layer of fun to your outing.

Before joining us, please ensure that everyone in your group has a local fishing license, which can be easily obtained online or by consulting Captain Skylar. To ensure a comfortable and safe experience, bring essentials such as sunglasses, a hat, and sunscreen (non-spray). While we offer some beverages on board, you are welcome to bring your own.
