There are 3 of us trying to put together a 1/2 day fishing trip. We are planning on going Monday March 23rd in the afternoon. 2 locals (Marty on STT & friend) and me the "vacationer"! Let us know if you are interested. The cost for 4 would be around $150.

8 more days until arrival!

Hello,
My name is Jason Cox & I'm from Eastern Oregon. I have been looking to get on a boat for a fishing trip. If the seat is still available I will take it. Please call my cell at 541-235-1420 or email me at [email protected]. Thank you for your time.
Jason

$150 each, plus a tip for the Capt. an Mate ($20 is fine per head)...each of us would end up with 5lbs of fillets to take home (or to a restaurant an they'll cook it for you)....an, of course, the reservation is based on the sea conditions...if it's too ruff, we don't wanna go out and get beaten to death! Haha!

I just heard from my friend on island and he is no longer able to go on the 23rd, so we would need to get another person, to make a total of four...DoubleHeader

Jason, I assume you will be on STT Monday, March 23rd. I'm not sure if you talked to Marty or not. I don't really have much information besides what we have so far on this board. I would prefer to get one more guy to go so it would be a total of 4.

Marty, would it work better for your friend if we changed the date? Would this affect you Jason? Otherwise, I guess we should put up another post to try and get another guy to go fishing. Let me know what you guys are thinking.

Almost there...

Doug

I will be arriving Sat March 21 late & leaving Sat march 28 early. My wife & I have no plans & are playing the week by ear so a different date will still work great for me.

Can't wait to be fishing!!

I would prefer to have a 4th, as it'd be cheaper, per person...

Very interested! Love fishing - never been fishing in the ocean before.

What type of fishing? Inshore or deep sea fishing?

How is payment arranged? Pre-pay or upon arrival?

What time, where is departure, and who is the charter company?

Have you been before? Is there a lot of motion sickness issues on these trips?

Would I have to purchase a license or is that part of the package?

Thanks!!!

Kessler
