Is there a booking fee or service charge?
No. The deposit plus the balance comes to exactly the trip price shown on the listing, plus any extras you chose. Nothing is added on top for booking through this site.
Plenty of booking sites add a service fee to the angler's bill at the last step. We do not. The trip price you see is what you pay in total, split between the deposit online and the balance to the captain.
We are paid a commission by the operator on trips booked through the site. That arrangement is between us and the captain and it does not change your price.
