Equipment

CAPTAIN CHIP'S BOAT

Our boat is a Parker 2300T Big Bay. These boats are rare and are perfect for our waters. The boat has a deep V in the bow and a short tunnel in the stern which allows the boat to draft only 10."  The boat is powered by a Yamaha 250 SHO. To maximize the vessels shallow water capabilities the engine is mounted on a jack plate. This vessel is very safe and has had a custom swim platform added for easy access to and from the water.

Parker overbuilds their boats which makes for a heavier hull and smoother ride. The lower gunnels minimize the amount of sail allowed by the hull. The boat has a large casting area and the back corners are fishable. The boat is equipped with a cobia tower and second station, which gives us a distinct advantage when sight fishing. It has a large live well and plenty of fish boxes. We use a Lawrence 12" bottom machine and charter plotter with side scan capabilities.

CAPTAIN MARK'S BOAT

Captain Mark Spencer has held his captain's license for 15 years and has been fishing with Captain Chip for 5 years. He fishes out of a Mako 224 with closed in transom and custom Armstrong bracket with a Rodan trolling motor. The added bracket length of almost 3 feet now gives it the reach of a 26 foot boat. He can fish four anglers comfortably.

SPINNING & TRADITIONAL GEAR

We use Shimano reels and Teramar Inshore Rods predominately. We use Shimano because we believe they are the best. We could use cheaper outfits but we want our clients to have the best gear we can afford to provide them. (Click the image to learn more about Shimano reels.)

FLY FISHING RODS

We use Sage Premium fly fishing rods. These rods are the new Salt HD models and the best rods we can afford to put in our customers hands. (Click the image to learn more about Sage rods.)

FLY FISHING REELS

We equip our Sage Premium rods with Hatch Saltwater Finatic Gen 2 fishing reels. These are high end sealed drag reels that offer unbelievable performance. These reels are lined with RIO Flats Pro fly line.  (Click the image to learn more about Hatch reels.)
