We provide all the fishing tackle and bait necessary. However, if you want to bring your own tackle please discuss it first with the captain so that we can make accommodations for it. In order to help keep our pricing down to the minimum on our charters, when we will be jigging we will supply one free bucktail jig per person. Additional jigs are supplied to our customers and charged at our cost. If you would like to bring along your own jigs and/or Gulp you are welcome to. Please remember that we cannot be responsible for lost or broken fishing tackle.
Our US Coast Guard license allows us to have six paying passengers. US Coast Guard regulations limit the number of passengers to no more than six people, whether they are fishing or not.
All of our guests are covered under our blanket boat license.
Yes, we work closely with Northeast Taxidermy in preparing your trophy fish for transportation to be mounted. In the instance of a released fish, like a billfish, we will take the proper measurements so that you are able to order a perfect replica from Northeast Taxidermy.
You may want to bring a small cooler for your food and drinks but a large cooler is not necessary. However, if you plan on taking fish home, we do recommend that you bring a large cooler and leave it in your vehicle unitl we return to the dock.
Definitely. Although sometimes we catch a protected species, most are allowed to be kept for consumption.
As a part of our service to you, we will clean and package your fish when we return to the marina.
No problem. Unless you hear differently from the captain, it is best to plan to be at the dock at the pre-arranged departure time. If the captain determines that a trip would be unsafe, he will give you your option of rescheduling another day or returning your full refund.
The mate works hard to ensure that you have a safe and successful trip. He is paid only by your tips so it is customary to tip him between 15% and 20% of the charter fee. The captain would be flattered by a tip but certainly does not expect one.
If you are prone to seasickness or motion sickness there are many over-the-counter pills available. However most of them come with several undesirable side effects. If you are concerned with taking or even giving these medicines to your family please consider getting an electronic Reliefband. These electronic devices are FDA tested and have been proven to be effective. They even work well on 3D amusement park rides and reading a book while riding in a car.

We charter out of Westerly, RI. Like our charter, the charter boats running out of Point Judith also run many inshore trips targeting the Block Island area. The simple fact is that by water Block Island is the same distance from either of these two Rhode Island ports. However, anglers coming from the west or northwest can actually save nearly 45 minutes driving time on each direction by chartering Fish Trap at our port in Westerly, RI. Please keep this in mind when you schedule your next charter. After a hard days fishing our customers really appreciate being home 45 minutes earlier! That hour and a half less driving time overall makes Westerly, RI even more attractive for your next fishing destination!
