Can I fish from your Kayaks, and do I need a fishing license?

Do I need experience?

No experience is needed. We will provide you with some basic instruction and guidance prior to launching.



Do I have to wear my life jacket?

Absolutely! Each participant must sign a waiver stating that you will wear your life jacket throughout your rental. The life jacket will keep you afloat even if you are tired or cold, and is a critical piece of safety gear. It is very difficult to put on a life jacket when you're in the water, so it MUST be worn all the time.



Can I bring food in the kayak?

Of course! You are welcome to bring food and stop along the way for a picnic or just a snack.
