FAQs
What to Bring on the boat

  1. A California fishing license is required on all trips for anglers 16 years of age or older. 
  2. If purchased online, an electronic copy of a California fishing license downloaded to your phone is valid; however, we recommend you take a screen shot of your license, or bring a paper copy, as cell coverage might not be available at the time you may be asked to present it to a CDFW agent. 
  3. An unexpired Passport or Passport Card is required for all passengers on the Mexican Inshore/Coronado Islands trips.
  4. Lunch, recommended for trips of 6 hours or longer, snacks, and drinks of your choice, including beer or RTDs, in cans or plastic bottles (do not bring glass or hard liquor onto the boat). We have a cooler on board for your use and we provide bottled water and light snacks (chips, granola bars and assorted candies).
  5. Layers of warm clothing. 
  6. Hat, Sunblock (spray-on preferred; fish will not bite bait covered in sunblock cream), Sunglasses, Buff, fishing gloves (if you prefer).

  8. Camera or your cell phone for photos.
  9. If you opt to take medication to prevent sea-sickness, it's better to take it the evening before your trip so it is in your system prior to boarding the boat.
