The Fish Hunter Express crew has the local knowledge needed to put you on an action-packed bottom fishing trip. They’ll provide everyone on board with all the fishing equipment you’ll need, fresh bait, as well as a fishing license. It’s recommended to bring weather protective clothing, sunscreen, any drinks or snacks you may want, and a positive attitude!
