Where to go, What to expect
Where to Meet
We meet at the dock at Fisherman's World, at 602 Glen Cheek Dr. Cape Canaveral Florida. This is right in Port Canaveral on the water, in the heart of the Sport Fishing area. SR 528 ends on its east side at Port Canaveral, where it turns into A1A. Exit at George King Blvd, and follow it under the overpass to the first light. Turn left onto Dave Nisbet Dr, and follow it around the corner as it turns into Glen Cheek Dr. Fisherman's World will be on the left not far down. Please park across the street in the large parking area. Enter Fisherman's World and inform them that you are meeting Captain Henry on the Wile E Coyote, and they will be able to direct you to the dock. Fisherman's World has a wide variety of fishing products and supplies. Last minute drinks, snacks, sunscreen, or any other fishing item you may want to add to your collection can be found here.
What to Bring
Food, drink, sun protection, and a camera. Bring your Lunch box, and drinks along, since there are no stores once we leave the dock! Water and Sports drinks are best for staying hydrated and energized, bring plenty (1 gal per person min). Food: we have no oven, so bring what you would to a picnic. I myself like food that I can eat with one hand, so I can keep fishing with the other! Long loose light colored clothes offer the most comfort and protection from the sun. Don't forget a hat and sunglasses. A camera to catch the action, and record your catch is a good idea. A cooler for you car, to bring your catch home. A rain poncho is a good idea given that in Florida its always a possibility, and the fish don't stop eating just because of rain. a water resistant windbreaker works also. We will bring a cooler with ice for your food and drinks. If you choose to bring you own, please keep them to the 6-pack or 12 pack size for storage consideration on the boat.
Will I get Seasick?
Most people say no. I have however seen those that do a lot of boating succumb every once in a while, so take whatever measures are necessary to ensure the time you spend hanging over the edge of the boat is to retrieve a fish, and not something else. Follow the directions carefully, and taking Dramamine or Bonine the day before as well as the morning of the trip can ensure that your system will be prepared.
What We Supply
We supply all bait, ice, tackle and equipment for a day of fishing. We also provide the State fishing license, and Federal Fishing Permits as required by law. Fish cleaning can be done for you within the 10 hour total trip time, however this would require the time at sea being reduced, since we are not permitted to clean fish until we return to Port.
What NOT to Bring
Hard liquor, glass bottles, dark soled shoes, spray on sunscreen, any illegal substance (no matter how minor).If cigarettes are necessary, we have a smokers room off the back of the boat! GPS devices should not be brought on the boat (we have all that is needed).
Tipping
This, like any other service such as restaurants, is a personal choice. Traditionally Charter crews rely on tips to supplement their incomes. When a Mate is used in addition to the Captain, they are working solely for tips. When the Captain serves as your mate, he to appreciates any gratuities extended to him at the trips end. Some Charters suggest a percentage, however, we feel its best for you to decide what the service rendered for the days trip was worth to you and your group.
"Please remember that how hard the crew works to help you have an enjoyable time is not always reflected in the 'icebox'. There are times that no matter how hard we try, the fish will not bite. On days like this, the crew typically works much harder to help you enjoy the day!"
