What is included in the price?

There is no single house standard, because these are independent boats. What there is, on every trip page, is an explicit list of what that captain includes — read it, because it is the honest answer for that boat rather than a generic one.

• Almost always included: the boat, the captain and crew, fuel, rods, reels, terminal tackle and bait.
• Often included: bottled water, ice, and a cooler for your catch.
• Varies by operator: food, beer and soft drinks, live bait, and fish cleaning.
• Rarely included: hotel transfers, and the crew tip.

If something you care about is not on the list — a particular species, live bait, a specific departure — ask before you request. A captain's answer in writing on the booking is worth more than an assumption at the dock.
