• Please bring a cooler for your catch, but we ask you leave it in your vehicle until after the charter - we will have one on board you can use

​

Do I need a fishing license?

• No fishing license is required, we carry all the licenses and permits for you to fish.

​

How do I know if I will get seasick?

• Each individual reacts differently to the ocean. If you are unsure of whether or not you are prone to sea sickness, please take an over the counter medicine for motion sickness. Top brands include Dramamine or Bonine, and should be taken exactly as directions state prior to arriving for your charter. Eat a light snack and make sure you are well hydrated.

​

Who needs to wear a PFD (lifejacket)?

• Maine state law requires all children 10 and younger to wear a PFD at all times. We provide a PFD for each person onboard. However, you are welcome to bring one of your own, or one for your child if it will be more comfortable for them. It is required that the PFD is of proper size, in good condition, and imprinted with coast guard approval. 

​

Are alcoholic beverages allowed?

• Yes, alcohol is allowed. We ask that you consume responsibly while chartering with us. Illegal drugs are not permitted and will result in immediate cancellation of the trip.

​

Will the trip be cancelled due to rain?

• Generally speaking, we will not cancel a trip for rain. Exceptions are made for specific trips. The marine forecast and wind usually dictate cancellations. It has been my experience that the fishing can be exceptionally good when the weather is less than perfect!

​

Can I bring my own fishing gear?

• Miss Amy is set up with all of the highest quality gear you will need. Additional fishing gear should be authorized by the Captain. 

​

How much should I tip?

• Tip the same as you would at a restaurant.  If you enjoy your trip, 15-20% is customary.

​

Will you help clean the fish we keep?

• Yes, Captain Jim will fillet all fish.  Please bring a cooler to leave in your vehicle to put the fish in after the charter.

​

What payment methods do you accept?
