What's the weather gonna be like? 

Now what'd I do with my Carnac the Magnificent hat? Honestly, If we captains could predict the weather we'd be making a lot more money than we do fishing!


Here's what I DO know...

  • As the day warms up, the trade winds tend to increase.
    Consequently, the ocean is often rougher in the afternoons.

  • Just because it's raining at your condo/hotel, doesn't mean it's raining off shore.

  • Just because it's raining offshore doesn't mean the fish aren't biting.

  • The captain gets the last word on weather cancellations.
    If you have not been notified of a trip cancellation, assume you're
    going and show up at the dock.

  • If the captain gives you the "option" of cancelling due to weather,
    it's my advice that you take it unless you're a glutton for punishment.

  • Your credit card will typically not be charged should a captain cancel
    a trip due to weather. If your card was charged 48 hours out, then a
    refund will be issued.
