Yes, within legal limits. We follow all state and federal fishing regulations. Bluefin tuna retention depends on current NOAA rules and the size of the fish. Some tuna may be catch-and-release only.

Safety is our top priority. If weather conditions are unsafe, we’ll reschedule your trip or offer a full refund. Light rain won’t cancel the trip — just dress appropriately!

We require one week notice for cancellations or changes. Cancellations due to weather are fully refundable or transferable to a new date.
