Q:
What should I bring with me when going fishing with a Mosquito Lagoon
Guide?
A: Sunscreen, Polarized sunglasses, Food and Drinks.
All fishing tackle and licenses are provided by the Captain, as
well as the finest fishing equipment on the market. If you would
like to bring your rod, please contact the Captain and tell him
that you are bringing your own equipment. During the summer, please
make sure that you bring plenty of fluids. The Captain has cooler
with Ice for all drinks that you can bring and need.
Q:
Should I tip the Captain?
A: Great question, and hard to explain. I have
always tipped the Captain when I go fishing. If the day is outstanding,
it is a nice gesture to give a little extra as a thank you. Most
Captains, I believe expect a decent tip if you have a good day out
on the water. I have been poled around on a flats boat for more
than 6 hours with my father on a trip and we only caught a couple
large reds. The Captain worked very hard to put us on fish, but
dad was not a good caster and we lost out on a couple chances with
fish. We gave a large tip, as the Captain really worked his behind
off to give us chances, and also poled us around most of the day.
Q:
What should I expect on a good day?
A: Weather is the most determining factor when
fishing the Lagoon. Windy days make sight fishing hard for the best
Guides out there. On calm days, catching double digit Redfish is
not uncommon. During the summer months, large redfish school up
for breeding, and you have many opportunities to catch 30+ pound
Redfish.
Q:
How do I get in touch with one of the Captains on this site?
A: When you visit the Captains page, on the bottom
is an email link for the Captain. Please send him an email with
the date you would like to go fishing, and also your phone number
so that he can get in touch with you. If you have any questions,
please email me or the Captain, and one of us will help out with
anything that we can. |
