Rockfish season is upon us again. We will be booking again on the Stagnaro Brothers half day charter boat for Saturday, May 18. If you would like to go on the trip, please sign up by April 30. We will book our spots on the boat. These boats can sell out. With prepaid tip, the cost is $75 for adults and $51 for age 15 and under. Anyone who is 16 or older will need a California fishing license (available for 1 day [$20.26] or 1 year [$61.82] timeframes). I have extra rod/reels that scouts/adults are welcome to use on a first-ask, first-loan basis. Otherwise, rentals are available for $14. I have tackle set ups that everyone can use, no need to purchase those. Also bring $10 to have your fish cleaned, it is optional but the deckhands don’t make much money from the boat; they count on $1 per fish cleaning fee and tips (prepaid) to make it worth their while. I’ll handle other fees that may pop up. See full details below.
They ask us to check in at 1718 Brommer Street, Sant Cruz, CA at 1:30pm; we will need to meet at Prince of Peace around 12:00 pm. If all goes like normal, we should be headed back by noon, arriving back in San Jose by 8:00 pm. If fish bite early we may return earlier. 

Two final notes. 1 No bananas. 2 If you get seasick, it is not fun to be stuck on a boat for hours; be prepared before the boat starts rocking with whatever you feel can help you avoid turning green.
