New Policy - Due to a surprising number of 'no-shows' I will require a deposit through a credit card to reserve a date. This will be a deposit of $100 for a 1/2 day and a deposit of $200 for a full day. Refundable cancellations will have to be 5 days before the trip and no-shows will be charged for full amount of charter. Sorry about having to do this, but lately I've had alot of people arrange a trip, not send a deposit and then not show up without calling. When this happens, I'm out of a trip that I could have been arranged with another paying party.
Again, sorry, but if I don't get a deposit, I will arrange a trip with another party.

After we schedule our trip, feel free to use my secure online credit card payment gateway for submitting deposits:

Things to bring:

1. Fishing License. Freshwater Charter Captains cannot have a 'Boat License' that covers all of the customers. You can buy your fishing licenses on-line at the VA DGIF web site. You will need a credit card and driver's license number. The web site is:

You will need a temporary or full-year FRESHWATER license. You do not need a trout license.

After you purchase your license, be sure to print it out and bring it with you.


Optional things to bring:

1. Rain Gear (Frogg Toggs are great!) and warm clothes

2. Favorite Casting Rod/Jiggin' Rod (depending on the time of the year) If you'd like to cast during our trip feel free to bring a casting rod of your own. It needs to be basically a heavy-duty bass rod and reel that has 15lb test line. If you need a rod and reel, check out CoreFishingTackle.com for striper fishing rods and reels.
