What’s Included
Your trip includes everything you need for a successful day on the water. Capt. Bryce provides:
Premium fly fishing and light tackle spinning rods and reels
All flies, tackle, and/or bait
Ice and bottled water
If you’d prefer to fish with your own equipment, you’re welcome to bring it — just let Bryce know ahead of time when booking so he can plan accordingly.
What to Bring
To stay comfortable on the water, Capt. Bryce recommends bringing:
A hat and polarized sunglasses
A lightweight, long-sleeve fishing shirt
Lightweight, long pants for sun protection
Rain jacket, just in case
Sunscreen
Any snacks, lunch, and/or beverages you’d like to enjoy for the day
The skiff is designed for fishing, so there is no permanent shade onboard. Dressing for the sun will help you stay comfortable and enjoy your day on the water.
Gratuity
Please remember that your captain wants to catch fish just as bad, if not more, than you do. Even a fishless day involves a lot of work and preparation for your captain. Showing your appreciation through an additional gratuity is respected and remembered by your guide. An appropriate tip can start around $100 per day. If you feel you had an excellent experience and want to tip more, please feel free to do so.
