Tournament Grade Equipment
Your trip will be aboard a 22’ Triton 216 Fishunter powered by a 300hp Mercury Pro XS and a 9.9hp Mercury Pro Kicker. The quality equipment starts there and continues through every detail. From the custom made Grandt Rods and Pfluger reels. To the best plastics, custom painted crankbaits, and my own personally tied stinger hooks. We take pride in making your trip the finest it can be.
