Just use google and start calling to see if anyone is working on a walk on trip. Captains appreciate when you call them directly to save them on a marina booking fee. Chipper's Clipper, High Cotton, Max Drag, Class Act, Fairwater, Cool Change, Intruder, Distraction, Getaway... the list goes on.

I have heard that pierless is the guy you want to go with I plan on doing so in September.

Are there any "head boats" or party boats at all in the area?

Is this something I should do way in advance or just a few days ahead of time?

I'm an inexpensive family friendly near-shore trip. I do my best to catch what I can given the limitations I deal with (slow boat, no federal permits, limited budget). If you want to go on a freezer filling fish kill, book someone else.

Do you have a website (hope you can't get in trouble for promoting yourself on the forum)? Do you have suggestions for "freezer filling fish kill" charters (I hope that's not coming off as rude--I'm just assuming you've got some friends you wouldn't mind promoting)?

I have always been pleased with Capt Al Bednar out of Sanroc Cay. Have fished with Al for about 10 years and have never came back without a box full of fish. He is also very reasonably priced. His boats are more basic than some(no satellite TV, etc.) but his focus is killing fish, not a luxury cruise.

I don't have any info about my fishing online really. I fish offshore a time or two a year with Curtis and we slaughter the fish max drag charters

Lady D, High Cotton, Annie Girl... there are many good boats in town who will do everything they can to get you on the fish, just book a long enough trip.

The best suggestions for an 12 or 18 hour is Summer Breeze 2 60 ft resmondo or Annie girl charters which is also a resmondo both great captains I worked for summer breeze 2 last summer

Does he have rates posted anywhere online?
